Debating.

I almost gave it up. I was thinking that  maybe i was not cut out for it and its better to pursue a different skill.

I was so right! Debating or adjudicating is not really my forte. But rather its a skill in which i can use my other skills.

I realize that i don't need to be good and better than the rest of them. Instead as a debater i should think and be better than i was before in the past.

I may someday hit the limits of how far i can only go on debating, but it will not limit how far i can enjoy each and every round of the tournaments before reaching that specific end.

Words like Standards, Issues, premise, arguements, policy, clash, analysis, extension, rebuttals and conclusions, are few of what you will hear in a debate room, and each word means more than what dictionaries can give them.

To answer the question, Did I ever regret joining the debating society? The answer is a simple NO. And for a simple reason, Debating became a special part of me that affected me as a person and no matter what happens, if ever given an another chance to choose, i would still choose the path that led me to the debater i am today
