It's the second half and my team is down big time. The first half of the game was ugly. Penalties, turnovers and we just couldn't get the ball moving. No chemistry on the field, no unity on the sidelines. Other people's life choices have set me behind. My own actions have paralyzed me and my team. Paths chosen long ago are coming back to haunt me. I feel like I have been living from behind, like I've spotted the other team 35 points before we even started the game. I feel like I'm well into the second half and looks like there is little hope of a comeback. I feel resigned to the loss. I hear stories all the time about the great comeback. They happen all the time, storybook drives and second halves of games where teams turn it around, put it together, start doing all the right things, making the right moves tactically and put in a great performance to win the game. I'm still waiting. But is it realistic to think that my game will also have a great comeback? I watch sporting events, and am a huge fan of many sports because I believe it to be true. Comebacks in sports transcend the games into life all the time as well. Can it happen to me too? It seems hopeless, especially after some days, a lot of days. I do want it and I do still believe it can happen, but when?
