Focal Points

One day in class, we discussed the idea of focal points in our lives.  These are things that link us to others and help us build relationships.  When thinking about what is a focal point in my life I came up with two: basketball and family.  These two things tend to over lap in some cases.  Basketball has helped shape me into the person I am today and many of my personality traits.  It has put certain people in my life that I never imagined and has had a huge impact on why I am the way I am.  As for my family, growing up we were a close knit family and still are today.  With that said, although these are focal points, my days are not centered around them.  I think having a healthy balance is key with focal points.
