I have recently(ish) joined a new soccer team. I am no where as good as the rest of the girls on the team and I always feel a little awkward and out of place. And I feel like the whole team kinda resents me .. Or at least don't really care about me or what I do.
On Saturday I had a futsol game with this team and after as we are driving home I ask my dad "did I stand out as an awkward player that wasn't really sure what she was doing?"
He took a while to respond then said, "no one, not one person watching that game could say you didn't belong there."
I love my dad so much and he always says exactly what I need to hear.
Another example is when my mom tells me oh playing high school sports isn't such a big deal when I voiced my thoughts that I would never make the team. The words my dad says are more encouraging because he understands. Of course my mom says they are no big deal because she played them.
In conclusion, I felt better about myself having my dad tell me i belonged.
just breathe.
