It looks like I'll need surgery to repair my ruptured Achilles. It looks like I'll be on the disabled list from playing basketball for a few months. The sad part was that I was playing so well when it happened...

I've never felt so old before.

When I told my parents, they said that I need to stop acting like a teenager and get in shape, which left me feeling a little bewildered. I was trying to get in shape when this happened. How can I get in shape if I can't run now?

But honestly, nothing is more humbling to me -- someone who walks fast and rushes around normally, to hobble and limp about. More than the pain, it's the time and hassle that I dislike. God, are you trying to tell me something?

ahh parents with their contradictory advice... "be more serious about God and stop spending so much time at church" "you need to study harder and why don't you ever hang out with your friends?" "you need to stop running around like some teenager and start getting in shape"

I can't wait till I'm the one doling out inexplicably contradictory advice
