Personal Narrative: The End Of My Soccer Career
Have you ever wanted to quit something because of someone trying to discourage you. When I was younger in about 3rd grade I played soccer and I had a nice coach.

That is why I want a do over of that time because then I could go back and not quit soccer and not miss out on valuable training and exercise and I could be just that much of a better player
