i hope you believe that you can still make a beautiful life for yourself even if you lost many years of it to grief, or darkness, depression, or a wound that wouldn’t close
Think about it. When your pet walks in from another room just to find you, that means they were somewhere else for a moment… and decided to come see you.
In their own simple way, their little brain thought about you. They wondered where you were, what you were doing, and they came looking for you.
They didn’t need anything. They just wanted to be near you.
That’s love in its purest form. Quiet, loyal, and completely unconditional.
my therapist dropped a truth bomb on me: “high functioning depression is scary as hell because you’re very capable of hiding emotions, feelings and thoughts, so no one knows you're not okay and even if you say something no one realises the severity, because you don’t seem like someone who is mentally spiralling out of control” felt it to the core.
Ten lazy years can disappear the moment you lock in. Six months of discipline can erase a decade of drifting. Momentum is magic. It turns yesterday's failures into tomorrow's fuel.
Meu avô me salvou com uma única frase.
Com o cabelo grisalho, a voz já cansada e aquele jeito simples, ele disse:
“Meu neto, não importa quantas derrotas você acumule.
Na vida, basta UMA grande vitória para mudar tudo.”
The older I get, the more I understand why people disappear into gardening baking, reading, and long walks. Not because life got boring. Because peace became valuable.
someone graduated at 21 but waited 10 years to get their dream job. someone had no education, but was a millionaire by 25. someone married at 26, but divorced 5 years later. someone married at 40, but found everlasting love.
you're not late. you're not early. you're exactly where you are supposed to be.
Mais um ex jogador argentino que considera Pelé o melhor da história.
Sim, muito melhor e maior.
Hugo Gatti, goleiro da seleção 🇦🇷 na copa de 66.
Bicampeão da libertadores e mundial pelo Boca juniors.
Como ele mesmo diz no vídeo, ele viu Pelé de perto, no campo.
Fala tbm do futebol Nutella do séc 21, Messi.
Não existe comparação.
Até os argentinos que viram sabem disso.
Só que vcs preferem acreditar no Formiga, Berto...e outros jornalistas Br.
Eles não viram o Pelé!!!!
Pelé 🇧🇷👑👽🏆🏆🏆
Je viens de regarder une vidéo d'une femme qui m'a fait chialer. Elle a 27 ans et raconte qu'elle a l'impression de n'avoir rien vécu. Une grande partie de sa jeunesse a rester chez elle et n'a rien fait comme les gens de son âge et qu'elle veut rattraper le temps perdu.
Subieron una recopilación de los 88 goles de Ronaldo Nazario regateando al portero, y me he dado cuenta que esto ya no se ve en el fútbol actual. Una pena.
I genuinely think football was robbed of seeing the real Ronaldo Nazário.
Not because he wasn't great.
Because we never got to see how great he was actually supposed to become.
Every time I watch old R9 clips, the first thing that hits me isn't the goals.
It's the fear.
Defenders weren't trying to stop him.
They were trying to survive him.
At just 20 years old, he joined Barcelona and somehow scored 47 goals in 49 games. That famous Compostela goal still doesn't make sense to me. Bro literally dragged defenders with him like they were training cones. Even Bobby Robson looked shocked on the touchline.
Then came 1998.
Ronaldo carried Brazil all the way to the World Cup Final, only for everything to change a few hours before kickoff. A mysterious seizure. A hospital visit. Then somehow... he still walked out onto the biggest stage in football.
To this day, nobody fully agrees on what really happened that night.
Just when it felt like his story couldn't get any crueler, football took even more away from him.
The knee injury in 2000 wasn't just another injury.
His patellar tendon completely ruptured.
Doctors were questioning whether he'd even walk normally again, never mind play professional football.
Most careers end there.
R9's didn't.
After 584 days away from football, he came back for the 2002 World Cup.
Everyone was talking about his knees.
He changed his haircut so people would stop talking about the injury.
Classic R9 😂
Then he did what only legends can do.
8 goals. Golden Boot. Two goals in the final against Germany. Brazil lifted their fifth World Cup.
That comeback still feels unreal.
I've always believed Messi is the greatest complete footballer.
I've always believed Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest goalscorer.
But if someone asked me which player terrified defenders the most at his absolute peak...
I'm probably choosing Ronaldo Nazário.
Not because he had the longest career.
Because for a few years, it genuinely looked like football had glitched.
What's the first image that comes to your mind when someone says "R9"? ⚽🇧🇷
