Bal’s Friday Thought…

I’ll be honest. It’s a bit of a deep one today. With recent events – what is the purpose of being? I’ve been reading a few books recently and looking at articles/diagrams that explain it.

Not going too deep here – we’re only on this planet for a limited amount of time. Make the most of it…

Bal’s Friday Thought…

This week’s Friday Thought is dedicated to my friend, Inder Mahil who passed away earlier this week.

He was the same age as me. No underlying health conditions.

We went punjabi school together on Saturdays when we were kids, we went to the same university and had a good drink together… and recently saw him take his young son to football training.

It’s a bit of a lengthy Friday Thought – but honestly, Life is so short. Make the most of it. No regrets.

Alan Smith, Crystal Palace Youth Team Coach: I had a doubt whether or not he (Gareth Southgate) had a career in professional football in him. We had one particular game, which we lost, and I called him into the office and said: “Gareth, I think you’re too bright to do this job. I think you have to make a choice. If it was my choice, I think you should become a travel agent.”

Bal’s (Good) Friday Thought…

I’m often asked, how do I find the time to do all the charity work, the football coaching, and all the other activities and ventures I’m involved in… well, I do ‘overtime’.

Bal’s Friday Thought…

Today’s thought…. reflects on the tough times we are all going through.

Let’s be honest – it’s not easy for many, the pandemic has hit many hard, still under lockdown, and with home-schooling for parents… the road ahead looks a little bumpy. But… keep going!

This week, I’m inspired by Avaani. Aged 7. Her father I know, and the below was shared on Insta.

We’re all going through tough times… but one thing we can try to do more of is walking… and talking.

So go for that walk… take your headphones and have a talk (if the person is further away)… don’t let obstacles get in your way (but please, stay safe and keep your social distancing).
