Life lesson from Brazil vs German- World Cup 2014

I don’t know what Title should I post here…
I write this post with so many mix feelings as what Brazilian’s supporter feel right now.
FYI, I am not a fan of both sides, yet I enjoy the show as it is rich of feelings, as it performs real life drama. In this post, I will not comment about how Brazil should play or why German win the play- I am no expert on it..I’m just a stranger watching the show.
 When German (GER) had their first goal, everything is still normal for Brazil (BRA), it’s a soccer play.. one goal could be ordinary. Second goal happen faster than everyone expected, third, fourth and fifth…
It was like a dream come true for GER and its like a nightmare for BRA; and for so many supporters around the world as well.
It is unbelievable truth. Many of us human will feel its not real, everyone just losing their grip of reality for a while.
At that moment of time, human is on the state of overwhelmed feeling- controlled by hormones that secreted from their body. GER will feel the euphoria, the adrenaline regulated well, endorphine also there to support their satisfaction. BRA will be on denial state, trying not to believe what is happening, they are in a shock state that their body is not functioning well. We see it ourselves that 90 minutes could feel that long. GER who are on the upside try to have a grip to control their phase of game, they have their boost of confidence, they have their safety net and they are free of pressure; one of them must said that it is one of their best moment in life. BRA who are on the downside, they need more time to gone thru their denial phase, their grief and sadness demand to be felt, for a moment in time, they just want to disappear from that fucking playfield, they wanna hide but can’t and they have to keep playing and try to build their confidence and skills.
Most of human will relate with those feelings I mentioned above. We feel it on our real life, when we face days with one and other activities. Things happened, sometimes we are up, sometimes life knocked us down. Learning from today’s match, I hope some of us understand some of these words: mental endurance, empathy, grip of reality. Nothing will stay permanent, neither pain nor victory – so wise man always do everything in a more calculated basis; victory will not stay forever with you, don’t brag it too long, also pain, don’t victimize yourself too much. After all, we should enjoy our life like we enjoy today’s match performed by BRA GER.
