I love the game. I love the study of it, the appreciation of it, the beauty of the struggle.

I love that no one really masters it, only some seem to come close, but they are the wise ones that would admit that they too, are still the students.

I love that the world fades away as one is on a 20 ball run, or a 200 ball run, and no one is allowed into that space, or that time, or that private world.

I fell in love in high school, and have been in love...
