Wednesday, April 21, 2004Reflections on cricket... I thought you might enjoy/laugh at this from LICC!! "The Bible remains resolutely quiet about cricket's googlies and gullies, but in a fast-forward consumerist culture, the game might just help to reflect something of an alternative perspective. In its purest form, whether playing or watching, it slows us right down. It does not always demand a result, but frequently produces an honourable draw - reinforcing the idea (at a local level, at least) that it's not always the winning, but the taking part that counts. And it reminds us to play with a straight bat through life itself. We can sometimes underestimate the true value of sport. This particular one helps us to remember what it's all about. It's only a game, of course; but somehow, it's not just cricket." Posted by: Mark | 11:08 am |
