Quote by Brett Favre

But when you lose a family member or something tragic happens, that stays with you forever. You never get over it. Knowing that you have to deal with that for the rest of your life... Football is important, but not as important as you once thought it was.

But when you lose a family member or something tragic happen

Summary

This quote highlights the profound impact of a personal tragedy on one's perspective. It suggests that when we experience the loss of a family member or any tragic event, it leaves an indelible mark on us. We never fully "get over" it, and it becomes something we have to carry with us for the rest of our lives. In the face of such significant emotional burdens, the quote implies that the importance we once placed on activities like football gets reevaluated. It forces us to recognize that while football may have seemed highly significant before, it pales in comparison to the lasting impact of personal hardships.
