              greatest things athletics teaches a


              person is discipline.  You know


              and understand the dedication,


              training, and discipline needed to


              win.”

                      “Okay,” I said.  “I do know


              those things.  But what other


              advantages could I have?”


                      “You’re strong.  I can see


              muscles ripple under your shirt as

              you dance.”


                      I was embarrassed by that.
