If in the twilight of memory we should meet once more, we shall speak again together and you shall sing to me a deeper song.
Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
Four months ago, when I pulled into Alan’s driveway for my first session, I was defeated. Life had been my opponent and had just kicked my ass.
Alan was sitting on his front step and, as I closed the car door and started to walk towards him, he smiled and jumped up to introduce himself and his family. That simple gesture of welcoming me into his life was the beginning of my healing.
My time with Alan has given me so much; my passion for boxing and, more importantly, for life has been reignited. Life is no longer my opponent; it’s the ring in which I will play out what lies ahead.
Alan, thank you so much. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and friend. Thanks to you, I’m ready. My boxing and life paradigms are in place. My armour has been repaired and reinforced. My heart is fuller and I’m wiser.
How bittersweet; it was wonderful and sad to see your last session, at least for a little while… with Alan! He has truly been a blessing and a wonderful addition to your life!! Thank you, Alan!! Gxo
You enjoyed every Monday and Wednesday night. I am certain that you will miss your sessions with Alan.
Alan has been a gift 🙂
well said, stay strong
i want some Alan!
Put on the gloves and give life your best punch.
Will do 🙂
