Friday 5 - Be curious, not judgmental

 

1. How do you feel about (or what do you think of) soccer, the sport known everywhere but in the U.S. as football?
   
   I used to watch with my father... He enjoyed it so very much, that I enjoyed his reactions.
   But now I never watch. 
   It's not interesting to me. And all the violence around it is not my thing at all.
   I think too much money is involved. For the players, but also for the security of players and other people.
   It's a stupid game: running after a ball and when you get it you kick it away!
   
   
2. What have you been forgiven for?
   
   I don't know.
   Maybe for stealing a biscuit from the tin when I was young?
   
   
3. Who is the most joyful person you know?
   
   Maybe Matt? He made me smile a lot!
   
   
4. When were you most recently a fish out of water?
   
   Hmmm, have to think about that.
   I adjust very fast to unknown situations.
   
   Maybe when I arrived in Amsterdam and was in so much pain that I couldn't walk?
   I had to go step by step... no help available, no wheelchair. So all I thought to do was try step by step...
   Now I would call the emergenccy team.
   
   
5. Under which circumstances are you the best version of yourself?
   
   When I have to do something for someone else.
   So when I stand up for "my veterans".
   
   I'm also the best version when I am with friends.
   
   I can also act well in emergency situations. I don't feel panic, just overlook the situation and practically solve the problems and prevent more problems.
