CIF rescinded their allowance for players to play club and high school a couple weeks ago. Thank goodness our Power Line College Bound Athlete Services are wor...king hard for these kiddos! I’m recommending my Power Line college bound athletes play club and forego their high school season. Tough decisions, life decision....

Dear Friends, We have the best puppy in the world. Her name is Remy and she is a small black lab. She is funny, sweet, energetic, and beautiful. And.she eats p...oop. I tell you this because it has been a source of angst for me since we brought her home. She will eat her own if no one is around and she will hunt down nuggets that have been left behind by other four-legged friends. It’s gross. When we walk on the beach each morning, she finds little gifts that other dog owners have failed to pick up. This ignites my self-righteous indignation about the thoughtlessness of others. So, my peaceful morning routine has been filled with vigilance and judgment. Nice. I should also mention that we have tried all kinds of interventions prescriptions from the vet, over the counter solutions, internet remedies of all kinds. We have exhausted the list of responses and found no way to keep this from occurring. Last night, when my wife, Marnie, and I were taking Remy for a walk, she turned to me and said You know, this really is a strength of hers. She has a gift for finding poop. Something about that way of framing the situation changed everything. We treated her like a tracking dog and allowed her to go on her search. We followed with flashlights, intercepted when she was close, and picked up the droppings that had been left behind. It felt like an adventure and a community service. This morning at the beach, I continued the practice. Instead of internally resenting and ruminating about what others had left behind, I simply picked up what Remy found. It was actually kind of fun. As we left the beach, I threw several bags of remains into the trash and actually felt that I had done a little something for others. Would I rather that Remy stopped engaging in this habit? Absolutely. Do I need to suffer over it? Absolutely not. Would I rather that everyone picked up after their dogs? Absolutely. Am I helpless? Does fueling my judgment help? Absolutely not. I was struck by how reframing a situation I could not control completely shifted my relationship to it. I am so grateful to Marnie for her ability to do this in so many areas of life. We are not ignoring the reality we are working with it as skillfully and joyfully as we can. Don’t we all have situations in life that we wish were not as they are? Don’t we all spend time resenting, complaining, blaming, and ruminating about these? What if we found some acceptance for it? What if we found a response that allows us to let go of some suffering around it? What if we used it as an opportunity to be kind, graceful, loving, or of service? One of the great truths of life is that there will always be stuff in life we do not like and would not choose to experience. We do not have to pretend that everything is always rainbows and chocolate chip cookies. We also do not have to behave as if we are victims when life is not the way we want it to be. Whatever is happening in life is our practice field. We can use every bit of it as an opportunity to express our deepest values, to build relationships, and to cultivate well-being even dog poop.

1st Game at 9:20AM. Championship Game at 11:00PM. It's all worth it when you take home the hardware. Our girls battled all day long and it paid off in the en...d. Great defense, small ball, huge hits, and aggressive base running. They put it all together against some quality teams. Really proud of all of them and can't wait to get back to work! #AthleticsMercado #AthleticsMercadoAli #RedemptionTournamentChamps #WorkHard #PlayHarder

I’ve always tried to bust stereotypes. I’m considered a really feminine player in a sport that is sometimes considered macho. I don’t like it when other people ...tell me who or what I’m supposed to be. I feel very fortunate that I have lived through a time when stereotypes about female athletes were being challenged and changed. It’s okay for great athletes to be super-girly. Or not. Beautiful women can have big muscles. As females, we shouldn’t let ourselves be put in a box. Labels are a way to pressure people to conform. Criticism is another way. That kind of pressure is hardest in middle school and high school. If that’s where you find yourself, know it will not always be this way! You don’t have to fall into the pressure. We are all different, and will never fit the mold of what society expects us to be. And that’s okay. As you grow older and more confident about who you are, you pay less attention to those kind of labels and to the peer pressure to fit into someone else’s notion of who you should be. Keep being you, others will begin to respect and look up to you for not conforming and staying true to who you are. Share this message with a friend today.
