today i got paired with 4 guys, neal, dwwayne, ed, and marcus at the special olympics. Neal was didnt talk at all but he always had a smile on his face. dwwayne kept asking me if he was winning, ed was just crazy good at bowling like superman and flying, it was so natural to him. and marcus wasnt very good at bowling but he liked to try anyways and i could tell he had a lot of fun!
so at first when i was with this guys i felt kinda weird and didnt have any idea what to do. so i sat there and wrote down their names and talking to ethan (who was in the lane beside me) about what to do, then dwwayne comes up to me and starts asking me when we can start bowling and if he would win or not. so i talked to dwwayne for a while before we started to bowl, he was nice and really was into the sport. then over the intercom comes a voice and said we can start bowling. so i told ed to go first (cause he name was first) and he goes up there and bowls. so the whole time these 4 guys were bowling i was feeling sorry for them cause they had a disability or something else wrong with them. i wish i could have help them in some way other than just cheering them on in bowling but i couldnt. they were funny and cool and chip white (in ethans lane) was so funny. i also noticed that all of these guys believed in themselves a lot, and i just wish i could believe in myself and in Christ as much as they believe in themselves cause sometimes i dont believe in God that much when i should. so i learned that even though they had a mental or physical disability they still believed in themselves and in each other and had a lot of fun. i wish i could have helped more in someway
