I think we all need to see something like this just to bring us all back to earth every once in a while!!!!!
No excuses for the rest of us ……………………

That dude does so much more with so much less, I am amazed. Then again 100 years ago he wouldn't have made it. Anyway what a strong man he is. Nuff said.  _________________ NRA LIFE MEMBER

Yeah, just one more thought to seal the deal on going to h***.
I don't know what the correct word would be. He's an inspiration, I guess. I think it really just amazes me that he's even alive, I don't know anyone with that kind of determination.
Not only is he alive, he's probably living his life a lot fuller than anyone on this forum.
I believe a lot of folks, not just forum members, have a tendency to take everything for granted. It'll always be there.
I've got news for 'em, nothing is forever. A few months back we lost power to just about all of the north side of Corsicana. My neighbors were lost, my kids were lost. Everyone had a realization that week that nothing is forever and what to do when it's gone.(Luckily, we had prepared for worse and our only discomfort was no a/c).
It doesn't have to be anything specific, just look at your life and what you have. Then use your imagination to see how your life would be without 'it'. The imagine that all of it was gone and you had nothing.
Don't take things for granted folks, you'll never miss 'em 'til they're gone. _________________ Only two things go straight to a man's heart, bullets and gold. |

I have been blessed to personally see and meet this man twice now. Both times was at teen and Autism seminars. He will get the message over and I am not just refering to his disabilites. He knows what he is talking about and is living proof you can do what you want if you want to.
Thanks for sharing with us on this one. _________________ Just my 2 cents worth with a nickel rebate.
