Sport
The drama of sport reflects the drama of our lives. Hence, we live our lives vicariously through the lens of sport. The action on the court or field acts out our own struggles and triumphs, our highs and lows, the jubilation and the disappointment, the swings of fortune because of, or sometimes in spite of, our best efforts. Through sport, we learn that hard work is rewarded with results, but also that the best team doesn’t always win. We see that there is a place for individual brilliance (indeed, it is essential), but that high performing teams are stronger than any lone star. Our heroes on the sports field become role models for all of us.
