wanna be. part #3

BUT....in reality, I am none of these girls. I am not Carli, or Abby or Alex, and I am not gifted with the gifts they are. I am Amy Bennett - with my own gifts and talents and with a responsibility to use them to the best of my ability. My job is to be the best Amy Bennett there is, with a goal of excelling. I want little girls to look up to me and maybe think of me at their games or practices. That's my job. Before I take the feild for a game, I look to my coach and tell her who I was going to be that game. One time it was Amy Rodriguez, the last game I was Carli Lloyd - I wanted to be creative and smart like she is in the center mid. But yesterday, at my final game for the season, I said, "Today, I'm Amy Bennett," - thinking about what these blog posts have taught me. And you know what - I was the best Amy Bennett there is.
