The day started like any other, but the same could not be said for how it ended. I arrived at the town golf course, Longshore, about 30 minutes before my tee time. There was slight cloud coverage, minimal wind, and a comfortable temperature. Glints of sun through the clouds periodically illuminated blades of grass, almost signaling for the ball to be hit there.

Golf was the game I loved ever since I was a little boy. That's the reason why getting cut from the golf team freshman year hurt so bad. I was numb with an empty depressed feeling inside me.
