March Wooden Wisdom

“Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.” — John Wooden

We all have some limitations, big deal. Let’s ignore those things and focus on what we are capable of, which could be quite significant!!

Our goal in Roses in the Alley is to bring you Beauty and Truth. Few people left as truthful an influence on this world as the great basketball coach, John Wooden.

Most of the things we find inspirational and share with you would fall under the umbrella of ART!  However, the athleticism expressed on the wooden floors of a basketball court should undeniably be considered its own form of art.

The words that John Wooden gave us were the definition of Truth. His life-changing ability to coach, to mentor, and to teach absolutely left this world a more beautiful place. Check out this inspiring TED talk from Coach Wooden.

Even if sports aren’t your thing, you have to admit that they bring people together. A room full of friends and family gathered together to root on their favorite team can also be quite a beautiful place.

So connect with your friends and family and enjoy the Best Moments in March Madness, the NCAA Tournament.

It really is a fun time of year! If you have time, learn from the teachers and philosophers, like Coach Wooden, that just happened to use basketball as their outlet.
