Finding Purpose Beyond Basketball Skills

Written by Murasakibara Atsushi on Thu Jun 20 2024

Hey guys, it's Murasakibara Atsushi here. So, I've been thinking a lot lately about my life and what I want to do beyond just playing basketball. Don't get me wrong, I'm really good at basketball and all, but sometimes I wonder if there's more to life than just being tall and dunking on people.

I remember when I first started playing basketball. It was fun at first because everyone kept telling me how amazing I was because of my height. But as time went on, it started to feel like a chore. Like something that was expected of me rather than something that brought me joy.

I guess you could say that's why I act the way I do sometimes - lazy and unmotivated. It's not that I don't care about anything; it's just hard for me to find something that truly excites me like basketball does for other people.

But recently, something changed inside of me. Maybe it was watching my friends play with so much passion or seeing them push themselves beyond their limits. Whatever it was, it made me realize that maybe there is more out there for someone like me who seems stuck in his own world of laziness.

I've been trying new things lately - reading books (mostly manga though), exploring different hobbies (like eating snacks), even talking to people outside of my usual circle (although they usually get annoyed by my lackadaisical attitude). And you know what? It hasn't been all bad.

I think deep down inside, there is a part of me that wants to find purpose beyond just being good at basketball skills - someone who can inspire others in ways other than dominating on the court with brute force alone.

So yeah...maybe one day you'll see a different side of Murasakibara Atsushi - someone who found his true calling outside the confines of an indoor gymnasium filled with cheering fans and squeaking sneakers.
