Current State

     In the past eight months, I have been dealing with a very bad concussion. I am finally starting to feel better and get back into the swing of things. I was playing hockey when I got hit and everything spiraled downhill from there. However, I have just recently stopped having headaches and have been able to really live my life again. 

     Since I have been feeling better I have started to get back to sports.  I have been playing baseball rather often and have found that I enjoy it more than any other sport that I used to play.  Other than sports I have found many other things that I have grown to be more passionate about.  I have found that I enjoy things that I never thought I would have, such as math and drawing.  

      The other thing that I have realized is that you truly don’t realize what you have until you have lost it.  I never even imagined that the words, “I miss homework,” would ever come out of my mouth.  And I most certainly did not think that I would hate a break from school and learning.  Finally, the last thing that I realized is that it truly is important to make friends while you can so when situations like this come along, you have a group of people that miss you and want you back.  Although this whole concussion thing may seem like it was horrible, and it was, a lot of good things came from it that I would have never realized otherwise.
