My Father Sometimes I really envy my father. My father is an athlete, not really professional but he makes a living by teaching people how to play tennis. You may suppose that to coach for living is his job, but actually he treat it as his hobby. Even if no one is asking him to teach tennis, he will go to the tennis ground to play with others himself. So he really love the sport. What's more important is that, he was not trained in college for tennis. In fact, he had served as a middle school PE teacher for more than 15 years, and tennis was just his hobby at that time, which he started to learn when he was almost 30 years old. But he has real talent in sports, and it did not take long for him to build his fame in the amateur tennis circle in his city. About five years from the beginning, he became the best amateur tennis player in his city and won a lot champions in varieties of tennis games. To him, playing tennis is really full of fun and relaxing. He just played it again and again, better and better, than one day he found that someone was willing to pay him in order that he can continue playing. Few people can approach that. So as I said, he is really a lucky guy who deserves my envy.
