My Sports Heroes - (Borje Salming)
Dear Borje Salming, Thank you for being a hero of mine. I admire your courage and work ethic. You have inspired me to be a better 'me' and to be more diligent in my training for sports and for life. You are from a community and a family that definitely knows the meaning and importance of hard work. I understand how difficult it must have been for you to lose your father at such a young age. My father also died suddenly when I was nine years old. You persevered however, and became arguably the best player to have ever played for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and certainly one of the best in the league. That is a testament to your determination and inner strength. I have learned a lot from your story.
