“Whether we remain the ash or become the phoenix is up to us.”
FIFA 22 is gone. We reached Division 2, but it wasn’t enough. We suffered in the end, we cried, we left defeated, crawling on our hands and knees in Division 6. Eighty20 F.C. has died.
Allowing the pain of personal growth to be a crucible of our spirit-the alchemical grail through which the metal of our former selves turns into gold, is one of the highest callings of life.
Pain can burn us up and destroy us, or burn us up and redeem us.
It can deliver us to an entrenched despair, or deliver us to our higher selves.
Now we shall decide, do we take the path of the victim, or the path of the phoenix?
