This blog is my way of exploring what I've learned the past four years from my wife, in her late 40's, passing on to almost dying myself and getting my left leg amputated, to striving to find a new life.

Determination
The drive to achieve anything takes many attributes
but an essential trait is that of determination or the
ability to persist to achieving your goal or desired
result no matter what challenges you are facing.
I believe every winner in all walks of life has the
ability to reach down somewhere deep in the
themselves to keep going, pay the price, stick with
the project in the face of adversity no matter how long
it takes or what others may say, think, or do !
Though it is not easy something drives you to keep
going even on bad days and the prize may seem along
way away but you live for each incremental step your
making down the road towards your prize, achievement,
or accomplishment.
Three and a half years ago, I was faced with the decision
of my life having just had my left leg below my knee
amputated and for the first time not being able to stand
or walk. I had to decide was I going to accept my fate
living my life without hope full of despair or was I going
to chart a course no matter what others said to regain
my life and the ability to walk.
As many of you know by now, I chose the road to recovery
with all the pitfalls along the way. It hasn't been easy but I
have such a burning desire to walk and live a normal life
that I push on day after day many times with no improvement.
Sometimes you can't visualize the prize but deep in your
heart and soul you know you can make it.
As the saying goes, " If you can believe it, you can achieve it!"
These past 3 plus years, have been an amazing learning experience
and it's not over yet. Each day my goal is drawing closer and I
have learned a valuable life lesson that the road to success
isn't always easy but it is possible if you have the focus, drive,
the ability to keep an open mind, and the burning desire to
achieve no matter what!
Remember, " If it's going to be, it's up to me!"

Rising Up Like The Phoenix
For over 3 years, I been challenged physically due
to complications from my diabetes including sitting
in a wheelchair for all that time which has stiffened
my muscles.
No matter what others have said I have taken the road
less traveled with miles to go before I sleep from a job
well done as I will experience the joy of good health and
regain entrance into the land of the walking.
You can't imagine what it has be like to watch others
walk, run, play and you sit and watch after being active
all your life. Some accept this situation but I cannot as
there is so much more I want to do, to experience, to
know, and to share!
Life can be a magnificant adventure if you can open
your mind to the possibilities. You can't let challenges
get in your way but you must rise up in glorious flight
like "The Phoenix" rising up from its ashes soaring
mightily to achieve your desires, dreams, or goals.
It's never easy and the road may be long and hard
but others have come before you to reach the mountain
top literally! I believe if one person can do it so can
another. Don't listen to the naysayers who would lack
the guts to try. Rise up! Never quit! Be prepared for
the journey ahead no matter what your goal is for
some glorious day in the future you will rise up to
walk again!

If You Don't Walk Down The Path I Travel.....
''If you don't walk down the path I travel, how can you
see the sights I see." The idea behind this thought
finds its origin 'from the Gospel of Thomas where
Yeshua talks early on about taking, like he had, a journey
of self discovery to discover who you are at your core.
We're all different having had different upbringings,
experiences, points of view, and perspectives yet some
of us have a curiosity of gaining knowledge and "truth"
and others are willing to accept what is passed down.
When one seeks a path to enlightenment the teacher does
appear and a path way presents itself where a range of
thoughts are discovered some pleasing and others disturbing.
We have been discourged from taking this path, " the true way"
by authority figures not wanting us to know because we wouldn't
couldn't understand it. Only they possessed they said the ability
to know.
But we must march forward to discover the ancient teachings
which reveal to us a new perspective of conciousness and
understanding opening the way to inner peace and viewing
the world with " new eyes" the " eyes of Yeshua."

Common Sense Revisited
We are now in a pivotal time in our 200 plus year
history which could determine our future for many
years to come.
This great nation was founded on the principles of
hard work, perseverance, the rights of anyone to
pick themselves up to strive for greatness, and the
idea of community that we are the American People
where like at The House of Burgess everyone should
have a say!
Somehow we've lost our way from the noble ideas of
our founding fathers to the petty politics of today.
We need to chart a new vision by opening our preexisting
perspectives to view a new day in America where we focus
on the many and not the few. Where we view each other as
brothers and sisters , not just giving lip service. to the beautiful
lessons an amazing carpenter weaved some 2000 years ago.
I've said many times he spoke," Love others as I love you."
But truly how many of us really do! We are not going to get out
of this centuries old dilemma unless are able to put on new eyes
" the eyes of Yeshua," where we realize we are all one, Americans!
not Democrats or Republicans and working for the common good
and the benefit of every individual no matter the race, sex, or faith.
This message has been shared before throughout time yet we manage
to give it a deaf ear , too busy to hear it, goes against my interests,
and numerous other excuses. But just remember, other great civilizations
have gone under remember Greece and Rome!
It's time to Wake Up America and open our minds to a range of
possibilities that can restore greatness to this majestic land.

Believe You Can !
So many times in our lives we are faced with
challenges and obstacles which line our paths
but with the right attitude, determination, a pre-set
plan of action, and the power of belief you can
find strategies to succeed.
Believe you can ! A can do attitude of " Finding a
way or making one".
Now I'm not saying it's always fast or easy but it's
possible!
Over 3 years ago, I joined the ranks of amputees
in this great nation and have been told by health
professionals my walking days are done!
That it was a pipe dream, an illusion of my mind.
But I am the captain of my ship , I refuse to accept
their limited point of view. Don't submissively accept
another person's opinion no matter who they think
they are but find your own way, make your own path
as there is so much information available to us all today.
Today I was able to stand for a short time but I'm on
my way towards the taste of success once again joining
the land of the walkers. A disability is only a disability
if you let it control you and not you master it!
So rise up making your voice be heard and find your
way or path to achieving what you desire.
See you soon in the world of the walkers!
