This piece is called Inner Growth, and I created it because I had a lot of it going on within me this summer, even though I didn’t ask for it. For the past 11 years, my entire life has been about baseball and chasing the dream. My life revolves around success in the sport until I had my first child and until both of my parents were diagnosed with cancer. Suddenly I found myself not wanting to be so far away from home for months at a time. I battled this conflict all season long, until I was released in July. I had mixed feelings about the release. I was upset that it happened, but also a little relieved too. I still have mixed feelings about it, but I have to find a way to live with it and realize everything happens the way it’s meant to happen. Consider this my inner growth.
