Oh boxing...you're like a girl,
my relationship with you
is just like a love relationship with a woman.
I love you so much that
I would give my life for you.
I will sacrifice my most precious desires for you,
like beautiful women and their coveted pleasures,
like delicious food and drinks,
in order to make the necessary competing weight.
I highly enjoy our time together
and I have you on my mind all day, every day.
You're just ALL I think about
and I can't live without you.
If I'm absent for a training session,
I miss you so much and feel so miserable.
I just can't neglect you, not even for a few days.
If I do, when I come back (out of shape),
you make me suffer so much!
It's like you're punishing me
for leaving you unattended.
I understand the dedication needed
to make it all possible. But trust me,
sometimes we need a little break.
Sometimes it's good to be away
and have some alone time,
some alone time to reflect on other aspects of life
and appreciate what we have.
When I come back to training,
I see a different side to our relationship.
I see how good of a progress was already there
and it motivates me to keep working hard.
To keep the momentum going
and the good vibes always resonating within.
Oh boxing...
I'm just glad I DON'T have to buy you flowers.
Great post. Being in love with a passion is a really good feeling. I have been that way with wakeboarding and snowboarding and the joy that comes with being able to do something you love is unlike any other. Keep that jab stiff and those hands up!
ReplyDeleteYes I agree with Greg. I really enjoyed reading this post. It was so different and intriguing. I like how you compared boxing to a passionate relationship. The passion really did come through here. It is so great that you have something in your life that drives you and gives you purpose. Good point too about sometimes needing a break.
