I never pushed him to wrestle. Hey, I never did! It is a great sport though, where it is all up to you on the mat, nobody else to blame when "you" lose. And yet, you are part of a team.

If he wrestles in college, great. If he doesn't, great. I haven't pushed him to even decide on which college he wants to attend. And, have defended him from relatives who keep saying, "He better make a decision quick."

His present plan is to get a degree in Physical Therapy and possibly pursue a further degree as a Doctor of Sport Medicine. He can work at the local garage as a mechanic for all I car, I just want him to be happy with whatever he is doing.

All that is of course second to his relationship with God, that is my first concern.
