This picture made me almost drop down to tears. Am sure all football lovers know this man. He is Andrea iniesta. The Barcelona legend who played for them for 22 years, scored the only goal that won Spain their 2010 world Cup trophy in South Africa and currently most decorated Spanish player.
Back to the pics, Andrea played his last match for Barcelona yesterday. During the match he was substituted, he was given a standing ovation and possibly a guard of honour as a legend. Then something happened after the match. Ini stayed back in the pitch after everyone has left the stadium. This pics was captured as at 3am West Africa time. He was just sitting on the pitch alone, thoughtfully, he was meditating on the journey so far on the pitch of play, achievements, celebrations, gallant days and now retirement, not just retiring but fulfilled. Am sure he felt bad but age has cut up with him which made him sort the last option in one's career path.
Now as an individual, young and vibrant individual so to say, how will it be for you when you retire? Will you retire fulfilled and in Grand style or retire unfulfilled and full of excuses and regrets?
Now is the time to rise up to the occasion and conquer. Time waits for no one and can never be refined when lost.
A man of vision will invest his time now and reap success at the end.
I personally miss you ANDREAS INIESTA
