Last week I began to share with you on reasons why I like to compete in Intramural sports at Patrick Henry College and how physical exertion is one of them. Today I will share with you two more reasons.
Inner Animal Nature The second reason to play intermural sports at Patrick Henry College (PHC) is the appeal to the inner primal nature of humans, long suppressed by years of reading, thinking deeply, and doing math problems. This is especially the case at my school, PHC, where one receives an excellent and vigorous education in all the subjects of the classical liberal arts, preparing him or her to get a great job and bring glory to God through their new acquired talents. Notwithstanding the benefits of lots of hard schoolwork, all human beings have an animal caged deep inside them in various states of slumber. For some, the animal is virtually nonexistent, never to be awakened again because of its extreme self-imposed suppression. For others, it only takes a simple flag football game to unleash its power. When it is awakened, the inner animal in a person will release panther-like strength, agility, and aggression into that person, making them dominate in an intramural game or other physical endeavor. Once one has found his or her inner animal, one discovers how much he or she has been suppressing itand how much it actually needed to be released. Learn Something New At Patrick Henry College you can jump straight into a sport or activity that you may have no prior experience in. There are many unique opportunities to try something new. Consider tennis, racquetball, Ultimate Frisbee, beach volleyball, indoor volleyball, outdoor basketball, softball, fencing, dance, or start an activity of your own. There are courts and spaces available at PHC for all of these. Next week I will provide you with my final reasonwhy you should compete in Intramural Sports at Patrick Henry College.
