one thing coming to light today…

.

you cannot have a bad hour in the backyard.

every hour does not have to be the best hour.

but you cannot have even one bad hour.

.

if you go too slow

it is over

if you have a moment of weakness at the bell

it is over

if you get too sick to run

it is over

if you sleep thru the whistle

it is over.

.

the backyard seems in many ways not too demanding.

but if you make a single mistake

it can be over so fast your head is spinning.

there is no mercy in the backyard!
