Dear Soccer,

After 20 years of playing the game I love, it's time to say goodbye.

You've been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember. Through early mornings, long seasons, wins, losses, and everything in between, you were always there. I truly cherish all of the memories—every moment played a part in shaping who I am today. Because of you, I learned so much about myself. You showed me that I can do hard things, push through challenges, and not just get through them but succeed in them. You taught me resilience, confidence, and how to keep showing up even when it wasn't easy.

Thank you for the lessons, the growth, and the people you brought into my life. This chapter may be ending, but what you gave me will stay with me forever.

Always grateful,
