In a rather personal episode, I'll share a few thoughts about what I learned from a couple of the hardest experiences in my life...A few thoughts and principles to help any one when life knocks you down and when you feel like staying down. Principles to help you get back up for another round...and that can help bring a little insight into why God may not always show up in the way we would hope he would. As Rocky Balboa once said, "Life isn't about how hard you can hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward!"
