Comeback Player of the Year, as you think back on
all that's happening, even over the last year, what's been
going through your mind?
Speaker 11 (09:42):
The biggest thing that's been going through my mind, and
one thing that I had to do to ease all
of the emotions and the anxiety and the fears I
came with everything, was to be where my feet be.

Where my feet are? You know, are chaplain?

For our team we used to have We used to
say this every day during the season, this is the
day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be
glad in it. He would say the first half, I
would say the second half. And you know that was
just our way of staying present and every day and
every moment and then enjoying the moment as well. So
throughout the entire journey, I stayed present. I appreciate it
every moment, the highs and lows, the joy, you know,
(10:18):
every one thousand emotions that came with it. And you know,
I can say I was there and I was present,
