...since being on this board. It's good to be back. Actually, I was gone from all the forums I frequent for awhile but have been posting on some others lately. Things are still the same. I don't know anymore than before LOL.
It's nice to see some ol' friends posting.
Julie's thread about helping people hit a spot with me
. Things are tough for alot of folks out there.
A dear friend of mine, from far away, her brother has heart trouble, I mean REAL heart trouble, and they aren't sure how long he will live. Knowing this, and seeing threads like the one Julie started...it reminded me of something my grandmother (rest her soul) used to tell me...
At the age of 31 she had a stroke and was paralyzed permanently on her right side. This after giving birth to a son with one leg and no hands/only half arms with stubs, who went on to operate heavy equipment for 17 years in the union and later had to fight for disability after falling from a dozer (and proving to the GOV he could work), breaking his abnormal bones...surgery would've paralized him permanently. I believe her stroke helped her to raise him to be the man he was.
...she'd say to me: ..."Son, no matter how bad things get in your life remember, there's always someone worse off than you".
Yep, there's alot of trouble out there, and a close friend of mine, her brother is going to die from a REAL broken heart. That is if God doesn't perform a miracle soon.
If there's someone you know that's in trouble in any way, lend an ear, lend a hand...the next person you know that may need help may just be YOU.
Happy Training everyone!
