• As time passes on
  I turn the next page
  To discover a new me
  while I continue to age.
  I may no longer be
  Who I was long ago
  But I still can matter -
  That much I know.
  With a new set of tools
  I have gathered from time -
  I keep looking forward
  To more mountains to climb.
  My best is not over
  As the skeptics might say -
  I just learn how to conquer
  In a much wiser way.
  So don't sell me short -
  I am not nearly done -
  I CAN STILL MATTER -
  I've only just begun.

• Sport teaches you so much, and you can translate that to other parts of life. But it's definitely a lot of dedication, not just for, you know, myself or the children, but the parents, the family finances, the money that you could be putting toward retirement you're using to buy tennis shoes and restring rackets and tennis lessons. So if you don't make it, then you may never retire. It's definitely a lot of risk.
