I served as an altar boy when the Pope came to town. Well, stretching it a little but way back then he was known as Cardinal John Paul the second and he performed a service in Richmond with me and another five hommies. Then he became the most loved Pope for a century. Not too shabby. I do mention that my son was in the same basketball team as Ben Simmons but I reckon I get more cudos. A mate had a soccer coach in Ferntree Gully and whenever Pele comes to Melbourne, he picks him up from the airport and he stays with him. Not too shabby either.
So what has this segue got to do with BOT ?.Simple, the CSL analogy shows that some things start out mediocre only to blossom and flourish later. We may just be the same.

Of course, it was a rhetorical question, but a touch of sainthood can't be too shabby:
“Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”

Amen.
