One of the most important lessons I learned from my father took place in our driveway when I was in elementary school. We used to play basketball every day, and he 36 that I needed to learn how to shoot and dribble with my left hand. Being naturally athletic, I quickly became frustrated with my lack of left-handed 37 . I became very angry, 38 down on the driveway, and began to cry, and my father stood there and looked at me as he waited 39 for me to get over my tears. When I realize that my behavior was not getting me 40 , I got back up. He passed me the 41 and I continued to practice. His lesson of 42 giving up and working harder to accomplish my goals was conveyed to me without a word. I 43 became skillful with my left hand, But what I really learned that day was a road map for overcoming my biggest 44 in life.
45 I was eighteen I was in a car accident, where I broke a vertebra in my spine. I was going to 46 to play soccer, and now I was told that I would never again be able to 47 athletically. For half a year I was not even able to 48 my own clothes. I wanted to 49 school and give up. I wanted to lie down and cry that life was 50 , much as I had done in our driveway so long ago. 51 every time I felt that way, that earlier memory danced in my mind. I knew that 52 I was patient and continued to work hard, I could overcome this difficulty.
For three years I continued to go to school, doing three to four hours of 53 rehabilitation every day, with constant support from my parents. And I finally earned my 54 back on the playing field. That lesson in the driveway had 55 me to be on the field, and I owed it all to my dad. I succeeded because of who my father is, and who I am because of him.
