Snowboarding Pt 1

======================

Asia and I went to the Wisp ski resort back in February

with a group of married couples. Although I had been

snowboarding once in college, it had been a good

8 years since I stepped foot in snowboards.

We all decided to go to the slopes on Saturday.

Everyone in the group indicated they would either go

skiing or snowboarding. Well, that was until we got to the

slopes. Half of the group ended up making excuses and backing out.

Asia and I were contemplating not going and being part of the group mentality.

What if we keep falling?  What if we break our legs? What if we get hurt?

As these thoughts were going through my mind, another couple

asked, "So Ramin you coming with us?"

At that moment, I decided to shut the voice in my head and

instead of being indecisive, I decided, why not?

Yes, I could have gotten hurt, but why live life always fearing?

Yes, the degrees of risk will vary, but there is risk in everything

in life.  

We then decided to just take a risk and enjoy ourselves. As soon

as I got on the slopes and off of the lift, I fell straight on my

face along with one of my others friends.

And you know what happened? I kept falling all the way through

the intermediate slope over and over again.

My other friend started to get the hang of it, while I struggled.

At that point I told myself I was not going to leave the until

I left the slopes being better than I came.

I finally got down the slope. Although I was hesitant to get

back on, I decided to practice what I preach and get

back up and try again.

Just like anything in life, you will encounter new, difficult

and even risky things. Nothing is guaranteed, but the

one thing you can guarantee is your attitude and your

determination level.

Toward the end of the day, I was flying through the

intermediate slopes with a breeze.

As I zipped past Asia, I yelled, “Never mess with the

will of a determined man!”
