He is amazing. It really does pull you up short when procrastination is so easy and then you see someone who has faced real challenges.

I’m sorry your dad wasn’t able to overcome his resentment. It’s easy enough not to, so he can’t be blamed for it. We have to “practice” to achieve optimism, sometimes.

I tried 3 times to get the video to play, but it kept saying ‘an error has occurred – please try again later’, so I will.

I have a friend who was severely burned while in the navy; he’s had 53 operations, and now is able to hold a full-time job. He reminds me not to make ‘excuses’, not by telling me not to do so, but by being the example of those who can rise to the occasion and battle through the hardest of trials.

I remember when my dad lost the use of one of his arms; he spent the rest of his life on the couch – complaining. One day I told him he should take a drive with me; I took him to a cemetery so he could see a one-armed man mowing the entire cemetery. Sadly, it only angered him – it didn’t inspire him………….
