I can't find the original post from last summer, but this is a summary of probably my favorite thing I've ever written:
It sucks that people think they need to be on a Worlds team for their cheer career to have meaning. Make bonds, learn skills and grow as a person in this world. That's what it's about. Not jackets and titles and rings. It's about breaking yourself down and finding yourself again over and over. It's about failing and learning that it means NOTHING as long as you stand up and say, "I will learn from this and I WILL be better next time." It's about learning how to put a team and a program before yourself. You might outgrow the jackets and rings but believe me when I tell you you'll never outgrow the lessons you'll learn. From mini 1 to large coed 5 and all in-between, I pray all of you are able to find what this sport has given me.
