I worked the Paralympics in Atlanta and learned disabilities don't matter to the person competing, they just love what they're doing. Lazy, egotistical, spoiled athletes and celebrities can learn from people with this kind of heart.

Thanks for sharing!

Agree... Glad you could appreciate it and saw it for what it is. Few appreciate just how fortunate they really are ya know?

I had a friend in junior high who was in a wheelchair, he had fallen off the roof when he was playing around with his older brother. You'd think it would have depressed the heck out him but he told me, "at least I'm alive, I missed cracking my head on the wood pile by six inches... And my brother feels so bad about he's done ALL my chores now for two years - how lucky am I?!"

You've got to see the positive in everything, even if someone else wouldn't see anything good in it at all
