why do we play ?

Why is it in our society that life is based around hype and the now? Can't we appreciate what has been given of us and be thankful for what we have? What makes basketball such a fun game to play? We all know basketball has a bigger picture and a bigger meaning ... so where do the grounds of living in the hype of basketball and the grounds of living for a bigger picture meet? In my recent blogs I've talked about making basketball a lifestyle and working hard a daily thing. This is true. We should all work hard and be the best that we can be... But why do we work so hard? What is the point of working towards something that's going to end sooner than later ? See, life comes at us fast, and with challenges. We should embrace those challenges. But my topic today is WHY we do things. What is the purpose of me writing the stuff I do everyday? What is the point of working hard each and everyday? What is even working hard? Let yourself grasp on the thought of what hard work is. To me there is no bar of what everyone should hold themselves to in order to work hard. But I know that if I push myself to be the best that I can be each and every day, then I have accomplished something and have improved. Improving for what ? Improving so I can live up to what people want me to be? Improving so that I can be happy with myself? Or am I glorifying my God for what He blessed me with?
Remember, when you aren't working hard someone out there is.
