Bowling goes well
Apr. 28th, 2005 12:30 pmI think my bowling might be used as a measure of my emotional stability at the moment. I was bowling really well last calendar year but when I went into depression over New Year my scores plummeted and have been low ever since. Two weeks ago I hit 600 in a seris (three games) for the first time this year. Considering I was averaging over 200 per game in one league last year (which means in general half my series would be 600+) this shows how far down I'd come. Last night I only bowled in one league (I normally bowl in two on the same night) and I had a very good series. 192, 245, 206. I was not only pleased with the result but with how I achieved it. I was concetrating properly on the game and was able to adjust to changes in the lane conditions over the three games.I was managing to physically achieve what I set out to achieve, which is what I haven't been able to do these last few months. I definitely think this shows I'm regaining my emotional stability. I'm feeling alot calmer more of the time now and instead of having occasional good days amongst the bad it's now occasional bad days amongst the good, even with the pressures of work.
