David Beckham and I
have something in common.
The #23.
Michael's #23.
Jordan, that is.
MJ was Beckham's sports hero,
as well as mine.
And we both wore his #
during our sports careers.
(My career in high school that is :)
I loved to watch MJ play...
all of those great plays
were truly awesome!
Not only did I love his playing,
but I admire his
fortitude...
"As a tenth grader, he was cut from the varsity team.
But this only pushed him to work harder at perfecting his game.
As he later said on his Web site,
"I think that not making the Varsity team drove me to really work at my game,
and also taught me that if you set goals,
and work hard to achieve them-the hard work can pay off."

Michael also said,
"Never say never because limits,
like fears,
are often just an illusion"
Thanks, Michael,
for this bit of wisdom and truth.
I'll take it to heart
and pass it along!
And by the way,
Happy Birthday!
