13 Thu. Clumsiness / 몸치
I feel like I was born with two left feet.
I've never properly cleared a hurdle, and whenever a ball came towards me,
I was tripping over my own feet.
I guess my sense of distance with things like balls was off somehow.
So, I didn't enjoy phys ed Class, and there were days when I couldn't fit in with the other boys who enjoyed ballgames.
As an adult, I wasn't too bothered by my lack of athleticism.
But when I became a dad, I worried that my kids might take after me.
That's why these days, I send my eldest son to academies to learn various sports.
Parents often seek vicarious satisfaction by having their children
do the things they couldn't achieve themselves.
when my son looks back on his school days,
I hope he will remember more lively activities, unlike his old man.
