I don’t know about others, but when you listen the national anthem at any sportive competition emotions overwhelm, eyes start to wet, you get chicken pots and arises the desire to be also part of the national team.
After a short look back at the last few years you realize that a top position was occupied by activity. Starting with 6, 7 years old, when you weed the onion and carrots layers. When other children of your age would play, you carried a bucket from which you spread azote on the potatoes that were going to multiply. Lickety-split Lipa lipa lipa climbed the kid'. up and down the hill. Also were so many different trees on the hill. During summer you had to pick up the fallen wax cherries and lots of maggoty apples. If you would have known how tasty the plum brandy is, maybe you had strived to pick up much more and even shake the tree for more to fall down. Time passed, the parents grew old and the elderly and weaken health made it hard for them to cultivate the land. But you, their offspring, always active had to find a replacement for the land work. And you did find. All summer long went to the overheated playground and waited for the cool guys to choose their team mates and pick the boy who scored 3 points one after another like beads on string. From 16, 17 years on you used the ball in so different ways: handball, volleyball, ducks and hunters, the well-known ball bearing game. All it left was the poker game! :P
Around 20 years old you noticed the first hooligan traits. You would yell your lungs out at every game of your favorite team held in Sport Centre (Sala Sporturilor). Until then you did not know how cool was to sit to the stands and how painful is not to be part of a team. Maybe you thought becoming a cheerleader but without any elasticity characteristics you would not manage to line hold only in the hands of two other ladies. Yes, gymnastics was not really your thing. At 23 you decided that a little fresh air activity does no harm, so you went paragliding. The take-off was not very easy, because you did not concentrate enough on the instructions before the jump and this affected also the flight itself. But most important, you had unique emotions that could not be compared with something else (like before an examination, love feelings etc.).
And because some, once they get older start to lack motivation for being active, you decided to learn how to swim. What can one do if they were only once at seaside and there was no other lake to swim in? Until now you could not explain yourselves how come you were not afraid of water and managed to learn not to sink. This experience from Olympic Swimming Pool Brasov (Bazinul Olimpic Brasov ) was not the easiest either, due to the annoying cramps and spline pains. All you want now is to be able to swim one length and not have to stop after three quarters. So, buy good shape!
Don’t be shy to practice any kind of sport or activity. Your mind develops on a different background and offers you the relaxation we so much need nowadays.
