You Think You Know Me...

You Think You Know Me BUT... you don't see the nights when I can't sleep
You Think You Know Me BUT... you don't see the pain behind my laugh and my attempt at a smile
You Think You Know Me BUT the effort I keep putting in day in and day out to make each day a success hoping that I won't fail
You Think You Know Me But... I am a mess, and just because I don't let you see the pain and hurt in my life
You See A resiliant and confident person .. but at times its just an act, its not me..
the question is who am I??? I am Sasha I am a brother, a son, a friend, a fighter, I have many different talents, not one defines me. I am always trying to make my friends feel my love and appreciation, even if I don't always receive it in return.
You See someone who you want to see .. but is that really me???
I wonder who I am and if I don't know who I am, how can sometimes a complete stranger know or think they know me better then I know me???? it makes no sense to me.
I know that one day the person that you see, and the person that I know that I am will combine and it will make for a great person, someone, with confidence, who can jump over any hurdle that is put in front of me, who will achieve the goals that I set for myself, I know that I will continue to be a good friend, brother, son.. all I need is to be able to put the image that people have of me and the person that I am and it will be a great person.. but when that will happen I wish I knew, but I am not going to give up without a fight, I have been fighting since the day I was born and though at times I have been knocked down, like this fall, when I thought the fight was knocked out of me, I still was able to get back up, and I will continue to do that till the day I take my final breath on this journey called life.
So you think you know me.. well how about we continue to join in this roller coaster called life and see where it may take us..

Sooo an important thing I learned today,  which is to just to the best I can and not to let the instructors or anyone else get me down and discouraged about my abilities as an umpire.  I quickly realized once I got down here at school that I didn't posses the physical abilities to be a big league umpire, and thats okay because I am doing the best that I can, and in the end I am okay with that fact.   I mean I know I will never be on a big league field as an umpire but I am okay with being on high school fields and maybe one day if the challenge arrises  I can be on a college field, but I will never stop learning, trying, expanding my knowledge of the game, my love of the game or my passion for the game.

A New Hall of Fame Class

As a young kid growing up I grew up on the heroes of the game, Ruth, Dimaggio, Mantle, Williams etc.  As I continued to grow up and watch the game of baseball grow and mature like I did, I was always excited to see what new legends were going to get to be immortalized into the Baseball Hall of Fame.   I've been lucky enough to visit the Hall of Fame on multiple occasions including as a kid with my dad, as a member of my high school baseball team on two occasions.   To now watch as more players that I grew up watching in the late 80's 90's and early 2000's it just reminds me of how wonderful this game truly and really is. I'll end this quick post with one of my favorite quotes from my favorite movie, Field of Dreams, "

RIP TIGEY

So for those of you that read this I chose to put my cat of 17 years to sleep today. She had been getting weaker and weaker and two nights ago she lost control of her hind paws and has spend the past two days/nights just sleeping her breathing becoming more shallow but never fully stopping.  I went to work today at 6:30 and came home around 12:30 and like usual she looked up at me using all her strength that she still had gave me a lil tigey smile and purred to aknowledge that I was with her. So we left at 12:30 to go to the vet and usually tigey HATES cars and car rides but today she just laid in my lap and slept.. at around 1:00 the vet came in and administered the shot and she winced a lil bit but in about 10 seconds her heart had stopped and she was gone.  I can still recall many of the details of when I first met tigey i was playing super bases loaded in our other room when my dad called upstairs saying he had a surprise for me. I came downstairs was told to close my eyes and when...
