Had a torn ACL going into ADCC Youth worlds. I competed because I just didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to compete at my last year as a youth this really stings a bit. Now I have to have surgery . I will be out a few months , Comeback now loading……..“Of course fear does not automatically lead to courage.
Injury does not necessarily lead to insight. Hardship will not automatically make us better.
Pain can break us or make us wiser. Suffering can destroy us or make us stronger. Fear can cripple us, or it can make us more courageous. It is resilience that makes the difference.”
