More From George A. Sheehan

A problem with school is that you often become what you study. if you study, let say cooking, you become a chef. if you study law, you become an attorney, and a study of auto mechanics makes you mechanics. the mistake in becoming what you study is that, too many people forget to mind their own business. they spend their lives minding someone else's business and making that person rich

When you're walking home at night, do you even get creeped out and even though it's silly and embarrassing you just want to run home?" it seemed too secret and personal to admit to virtual stranger, but i told her, "yeah, totally." for a moment, she was quiet. then she grabbed my hand, whispered, "run run run run run," and took off, pulling me behind her.

Lonely Powerful Loneliness
So mo began filling the silence with words. he lured them out of the pages as if they had only been waiting for his voice, words long and short, words sharp and soft, cooing, purring words. they danced through the room, painting stained glass pictures, tickling the skin. even when meggie nodded off she could still hear them, although mo had closed the book long ago. words that explained the world to her, its dark side and its light side, words that built a wall to keep out bad dreams. and not a single bad dream came over that wall for the rest of the night.

It's really impossible for athletes to grow up. on the one hand, you're still a child, still playing a game. but on the other hand, you're a superhuman hero that everyone dreams of being. no wonder we have such a hard time understanding who we are.
