Summer is finally over

Last Friday night my softball team finally had its celebration for winning the league in August. The season was pushed a few weeks so when the championship game was played it was the middle of August, and we tried to get to get together but everyone got busy. It was really great seeing my teammates and catching up with what was going on with them.

I started talking to these people about themselves. Seeing what they are doing now that softball is over. I truly started listing to these people for the first time. I realize now that I really did not know my teammates. I never took the next step to get to know them. I would keep them at a distance. There is no reason why I did this I just did. Once again, I felt that they only liked me because I was on the team. I learned I was so wrong.

I got to catch up with people and learn about what they did when they were not playing softball. I learned what jobs that they had. I learned about the people who they love and some who they lost. I have been missing so much of these people. So I started to get to know them. And they started to get to know me. It was a great feeling that I have some really good friends. We even talked about getting together again by the end of the year.

I have to wonder why I did not try to get to know these people. I guess not being confident in myself really effected me in so many ways. I felt that they did not want to be my friends. I was just a guy who played softball with them. This night was different I got to know my teammates, and now they are also my friends.
