I remember going to a new school when I was real young and insecure, no new friends and was relatively picked on by the other boys. I picked up a sports book from the library and I remember flicking through the pages until I saw a page dedicated towards Ronaldo. Reading his story was inspirational, but one thing stood out to me, when he was young he was socially outcasted by his peers after moving which led him towards emotional outburts, even eventually reaching a point of throwing chairs at his own teacher. It’s in that moment I found that a wave of solace and comfort washed over me. That feeling that I wasnt alone and that someone as big as of a name as Ronaldo had gone through similar feelings as I had, it made me feel a different way. That’s why he’s my goat. He is the embodiment of perseverance, self betterment and is a cultural icon for so many, for so much different reasons. I resonate with him so much emotionally, and I love him as he showed me It doesn’t matter what they think, what matters is how you carry yourself, what you do to show them that you matter. I’ve recently enrolled into a college into a pretty prestigious course, however just a year ago I had failed all of my mock exams. Ronaldo’s symbolic image of perseverance and working through the pain of not being naturally cut out for something can lead me somewhere. I ended up securing Grade 6’s and 5’s. Sorry if this is long, but this is probably the first and only time I’ll ever open up about myself, the influence of Ronaldo in my life, and my only time to say I fought through nature and other peoples doubts.
