ONCE IN FOUR YEARS

WHEN CHANGE IS EXPECTED

It’s a simple thing - just a ball and a goal. But once in four years this simple thing drastically changes the Whole World...
...It closes the schools, closes the shops, closes the city... Stops a war... A simple ball fills the passion and pride of nations. Gives people everywhere something to hope for. Gives countries respect, when respect is in short supply and achieves more then politician ever could.
Once every four years a ball does the impossible...
And if you are dreaming of anything - the World is about to Change...

Spending more then 20 years in Football, I know very well what every player tries to achieve today in South Africa.
The World is about to Change... Just think of this: Onсe in every four years a simple ball drastically changes the multitude... Stops school, shops,  even wars... Life is in a Pause – World Cup! A simple ball changes a World? I am praying that this ball could play for God’s Team... Just imagine, all these talented players will proclaim God’s Name! Dream Big... Dream with me...

QUITE QUIET


SHORT BREAKS BETWEEN BATTLES

Children are sweet creatures - we all know that, but... Exactly, the post is about this "but".
Before you read following, let me introduce to you "the creatures".
Milan - 2 years and 7 months old (31 months), weights 14 kg (~31lb) and 92 cm tall (~3ft).
Martin - well, you have to imagine him. He is smaller, lighter and doesn't talk at all...
Our little son Milan. He talks all the time! Milan is so active that some times we can not put him to sleep during the day, because he didn't loose all his energy. On the other hand, we have Martin. This is another story... Martin likes being held almost all the time. He go to sleep easy. He doesn't talk but he is not a quiet baby. If Martin wants something - you'd like to know what he wants as early as possible! Believe me, you do not want this little siren for long - it'll blow your head out! The good news is, recently we began to feel the pleasure communicating with Martin! He is such "Teddy Bear" type kid.
You might ask: - where is your "but"? Ok, I will tell you now... We, no doubt, enjoy our kids. We see them eating, crawl, walking, talking. Basically, we see them grow. And we really enjoy them around. BUT, we enjoy short breaks too and it's so peaceful when they sleep!!! It makes our life quite quiet...
