In My Next Life, I would Love to be a Sportsman.
Greetings, my dear read cash Audience. I trust y'all had a nice day in this unprecedented bearish market.
My account @Chief_Mekus was spammed some weeks ago because I violated rules that, I obviously know nothing about. It was a really hard and troubling time for me. I was just alone, nursing the thoughts of where I'd have actually gone wrong. I went through my comments in the past week, yet, I still couldn't find any flaw. After that, I contacted some of my friends on here on read cash and they told me that nothing much could be done about it and advised me to open a new account.
The thoughts of losing my old account, which I've strived to build, for the past month, was a really difficult one, but there was nothing I could do to salvage the situation. So today, I summoned the courage to put aside all discouraging thoughts and start all over again.
I believe that with time and hard work, I would return to where I initially was. I want to sincerely thank @King_Gozie , @Olasquare , @Amazing-grace and @Ellawrites for their advice at that critical period. God Bless you all immensely.
TOPIC OF THE DAY
The inspiration to write on this topic was drawn from a tweet I saw some days ago, about Mbappe and his contract extension with Paris Saint Germain. The tweet just gave us a glimpse of his contract details, if he's to sign a two year extension at the club.

I was in awe because the numbers that were there could actually substitute for the budgets of some nations around the world. But it wasn't the budget of any country or State; it was literally a "reward for passion". Although it's quite pertinent, that Mbappe is a very talented player, who deserves such high amounts of money as wages. but there are certain players in world football that earn more than they deserve. A notable example is Harry Maguire that plays for Manchester United. I'm very certain that, if I was born in a country that appreciates sports and sees it as a means to an end, I most definitely would have been better than Harry, at what he's being paid to do.
This doesn't just apply to football alone; it applies to every other sport. I am well built physically and would have done well in games other than football, such as American football, Rugby or even basketball.
At the end of the day, all these things would only be a matter of 'if', based on assumptions and not on facts. Nevertheless, we would just have to maximize any opportunity we see, wherever we find ourselves, and make the most out of it. Thanks for this wonderful read.

We've missed you on this platform Chief, I can only imagine how you must have felt, but I'm glad you didn't allow your situation define you, they say one doesn't really know the definition of pain except one feels it... So I really don't know what I would have done if I walked in your shoe, but in the long run, I'm so happy you summoned up enough courage to come back... Welcome back to read.cash Chief.
