"Care Very Hard"

"The main thing is to care. Care very hard, even it it is only a game you are playing." - Billie Jean King, tennis champion and co-founder of the Women's Tennis Association

I admire the strength and courage of professional athletes. The discipline they show in their training regimen and the love of their sport amazes me. This quote might explain it all - they care very hard.

That's a great phrase. I've been known to care very hard about a lot of things but it's actually turned people off at times. I can become very stressed over situations when I want everything to be perfect! My stress can affect the people I'm around very quickly. That's not productive and it certainly is nice to do to other people.

These days I still care very hard, but I try to care without negatively affecting the friends around me. Thank you God, that I care today and that I care about the people around me as well.
