I've liked Lionel Messi the first time I saw him on television news, dribbling, weaving, and shooting goals. That had been over a decade now and the young, very promising lad had turned into a man, proving a millennial with humble beginnings can achieve greatness. Indeed, Lionel Messi is soccer's goat, or greatest of all time. But the story doesn't stop there. Lionel Messi is even more inspiring to young and old alike, especially the infirmed, or those without hope. Today's Gospel tells us that the crowd of the blind, the lame, and the destitute have followed our Lord Jesus. That was the moment our Lord healed and fed the hungry. The miracle of loving the needy.

Personally, soccer is the only genuine sport for me. I do not have the pleasure of getting to watch the games like they have it in Europe and South America and Africa, and I have to wait for the World Cup every four years, or the Olympics, to watch soccer, but Messi's star did shine. I love that human being very much.

Yes, Lionel Messi is truly inspiring. And to think he is only 33 years old, making a difference to the lives of many, especially the children.
