At
just four feet eleven and one-half inches tall, no one
expected Keith Braswell to make the Dayton University
basketball team. But he did! He became the shortest
player in the school's history by two and a half inches.
That he did it as a walk-on is little short of unbelievable!
Part
of Keith's success is summed up by a competitive coach,
Mike Calhoun from Eastern Kentucky, who says that "Keith
has a big heart...and his passion and enthusiasm excite
the crowd."
Keith
Braswell gives both men and women of short stature--and
for that matter, people who have perceived or real disadvantages
or disabilities--the all-important ingredient called
"hope."
All
of this is to say that it's relatively easy to put people
on a pair of scales and tell exactly how much they weigh.
You can stand them up and measure their exact height.
But it is impossible to measure the human qualities
that coaches constantly refer to as "heart." When we
recognize, use, and develop what is inside us to the
fullest capacity, it's amazing what we can do with our
lives.
