A Pale Imitation


A compelling fixture last night between Inter and Chel$ea, which lived up to all expectations.

It's weird how when you watch a great match like that, enhanced by the fantastic atmosphere created by the crowd, you get completely caught up in that world.

It all seems so big, so important.

And then suddenly you are facing one of life's important moments.

When your character is tested and you have to place your trust in others.

A minor operation for a loved one, not life threatening, but nonetheless an intense experience.

Wanting to do the right thing to help him through it.

Coming through the other side and knowing it's going to be OK.

Within 24 hours, somehow the drama of a Champion's League drama, starring Jose Mourhino, seems a pale imitation of real life.
