Daniel Alves, agora Pastor, afirmou que se sentiu mais feliz na penitenciária do que na época em que ganhava milhões de euros como jogador profissional:
"Eu ganhava milhões de euros, graças a Deus e ao futebol, mas, na prisão, ganhando 113 euros, eu era mais feliz do que ganhando milhões. Antes eu jogava futebol e agora estava na prisão limpando a casa, mas tinha meu pai [Deus] comigo. Eu dizia: 'O que valem milhões de euros sem pai?"'
Weariness is not always a sign to stop, it may be a sign you’re close to the finish.

The true glory frequency is praying in the Spirit. One persistent prayer for a flight attendant led to her miraculous survival and that of all passengers when her airline tragically crashed. No special rituals, just the power of the Word and the Holy Ghost.
Organizational ability most times gets beaten by the team that has same but can also flex their individual technical superiorities.
The French won it because while they worked as hard without the ball, they have the real difference makers.
*I may delete this soon*
Every single day, I'm thankful for the brave but tough decision, many years ago, to completely detach my career prospects from Ghana sports.
I live in Ghana. But I refuse to be *of* Ghana. The world is too big and too laden with opportunity to be *of* Ghana.
Can you imagine being tethered to a system like this in order to have a better life?
To be reliant on the institutions being discussed in the last 4/5 days? To be worried that their actions and inactions will affect your quality of life?
It is my hope that every young sports journalist and sports content creator is ready to make the effort and sacrifice required to delink their sustenance from this broken system. To challenge themselves to be more. More than just score-counters, and press conference regurgitators, but commercially viable people that reputable institutions can bank on.
To position yourself to fight the system in a way that will not cut off your oxygen. To be able to pick your moments, pace yourself and act with clarity at your own time.
Yes, the decision will lead you to an extremely lonely road. It is a very tough (t)ask.
You may likely lose a few early friends and all that, but believe me when I say, you will win if you stay the course. The right friends will eventually find you.
Map out a plan. Find helpers. Stay the course. Be uncompromising in your work ethic. There will be a gew bad days and potholes and mistakes you will make.
But — and I am sure of this — fate usually smiles on those who stay true to themselves.
May the force be with us all. As for Ghana sports, it is well. Aluta continua.
“Acı gerçek şu ki…
Barışçıl bir insan bile gerektiğinde şiddetin ne olduğunu bilmeli.
Aksi halde sahip olduğu huzur, onu tehdit eden kişinin insafına kalır.”
