Life Lessons from Re-Connecting
Dr. Mike Sevilla
FEBRUARY 10, 2022
Are there long time friends that you just haven’t talked with since the start of the pandemic? Of course, you were like me, saying to yourself, “Well, we will chat again soon.” Or, “One of these days I’ll give them a call again.” But, it’s now been two years. Two long years. I challenged myself this week. I had some days off from work, and it was my goal to re-connect with some people whom I haven’t talked with in a while.

“The thrill of victory, and the agony of defeat.” This was the iconic tagline from the Wide World of Sports show when I was growing up back in the day. What’s so interesting to observe is the attitude of the press and the public during events like the Olympic Games. The hype and the expectation leading up to sporting events like this is incredibly high, that I don’t know how these athletes deal with this.
