Chasing Dreams: The Beautiful Game of Football
The beautiful game of Football
Football, the world's most beloved sport, captivates hearts and minds across the globe. Played in every corner of the planet, it unites people from diverse backgrounds under one common passion.
At its essence, football is a beautiful game of strategy, skill, and teamwork. Two teams of eleven players each engage in a dynamic battle to score goals by maneuvering a ball into the opposing team's net, utilizing every part of their body except their arms and hands. Played on a rectangular field with goalposts at each end, the objective is simple yet profound: outmaneuver your opponents and put the ball in the net.
What distinguishes football is its accessibility and simplicity. A mere ball and an open space are all that's required, making it a sport for anyone, anywhere. Whether it's children kicking a ball around in the streets or professionals competing in grand stadiums, the allure of football transcends age, gender, and nationality.
But football isn't just a game; it's a cultural phenomenon that weaves itself into the fabric of societies worldwide. It's a source of national pride and identity, uniting communities and fostering a sense of belonging. The passion for football runs deep, driving fans to come together in celebration or commiseration, experiencing the highs and lows of the game as one.
Football also serves as a powerful platform for inspiration and aspiration. From the unforgettable exploits of legendary players to the inspiring stories of underdog teams defying the odds, football narratives resonate with millions, instilling hope and belief in the power of perseverance and teamwork.
Moreover, football is a significant economic force, with its impact felt across various industries. From ticket sales and merchandise to television rights and sponsorships, the football ecosystem supports millions of jobs and drives economic growth in communities around the world.
Yet, above all, football is a game of emotion and passion. The electric atmosphere of a stadium, the euphoria of a last-minute goal, the heartbreak of defeat – these are the moments that evoke raw emotions and forge lifelong memories for players and fans alike.
In conclusion, football is more than just a sport; it's a global phenomenon that transcends boundaries and connects people on a profound level. Whether played on dusty streets or grand arenas, football's universal appeal lies in its ability to inspire, unite, and bring joy to millions worldwide.

Trauma Carnival
I have unpopular opinions on one of my old favorites, The L Word. First is: Jenny is my favorite character. Second: The show was originally about Jenny, her trauma, her broken identity and the way her sexuality was explored as an awakening that brought up many memories of childhood abuse.

At the Sheltering Doors
The doors, they always scrambled for the doors first. When they arrive and always by night it was a race to desperately bar the creatures entry to the house in the slow crawl of numb feet that the dream would impose upon him. He never seemed fast enough and the creatures uninhibited by the same constraints always made the doors first. The houses in his dream-scapes vary night to night - Some are mansions, others shacks and some are distorted contortions of his childhood home which burned down when he was ten. But the doors are always the same – frail, loose hinged and never could be fully shut. The creatures too vary – twisted and corrupted forms of animals and people familiar to him: family dogs preternaturally swollen to twice their size with rotting coats of mange and slicked damp with dark liquids of decay. The people too were bloated vestiges of ones vaguely familiar to him but whose names escape him. Their eyes gorged wide with dark blood which streaked their mottled faces in crusted trails like lost rivers which hung from their chins swinging in ropy columns beneath paling yellowed teeth. To let them break through would mean death. This he knew with grave certainty. At the door was desperation and panic as their stench emanated forth, sickly and pungent like vomit and mold and ending in a gruesome exhalation like cancer, the stench sticky and clinging invading his nostrils and lungs never to be expunged. Then in the sudden waking he never knew if he repelled them or not.
