Hope u are doing well, notapoet. Keep up the good work! Do not ever despair, for if u only knew how much God loves you, unconditionally, you will begin to realize you are a treausre.  Sometimes, if it werent for our suffering, we would not be the people we are today. Keep shining.

"...I didn’t expect to be good, but I was determined to become competitive."

That's a really nice way of approaching your re-entry into basketball.  That statement could relate to anything in life that first appears as a challenge to us.

That, my friend, is worth repeating. 

My son is in his final year of youth football.  On October 29th, I must give a speech that is a tribute to him and his friends, all who have played for the team for 5-6 or 7 years consecutively.  You have inspired me to write the speech around your quote.  Poet...you've made my day.  Thank you.
