Talent

My family received the gift of sporting event tickets with the option of either a Minnesota Timberwolves basketball game or a Minnesota Wild hockey game. Seeing as the Wolves are having their worst season ever (could rival the worst of any professional sport) we chose the Wild game.

We attended the Thu. Dec. 20 game against the New York Rangers. Wow what a fun experience and on top of it all I was able to witness Marion Gaborik score 5 goals in regulation play! That hasn't been done since Mario Lemieux had 5 in 1996.

It truly is inspiring to see someone using their God given talents at the highest level of performance. When I ponder performances like this, I am reminded of all hours of effort, both mental and physical, put forth by these achievers toward their craft. Probably the most important aspect is the love these individuals have for their craft and their fellow players/performers, lest we not forget we cannot achieve these things all on our own.

Way to go Marion and thanks for that inspiring performance!
