We don't always get what we want.  Things don't always turn out how we expected.  Some even start life with a disadvantage.  The list goes on of things we could complain about.  Or we could choose to smile and get on with life and be grateful for what we can do and do have.  Shot out to LJ for the inspiration.

Friend, brother, father figure.  Triple threat.  We go back to '83-'84.

The role Gary has played in my life can't be summed up in a 20 minute podcast but in this episode I shed some light on the impact he has made (and continues to make) in my life.  Thank you, Gary.  

We all have at least one we have to push...how will you choose to push it?

Life can be a tough teacher.  She gives you the test before the lesson.  Hopefully you learn it the first time.  Either way, it can leave a mark.

Down Syndrome?  Wet Zubaz?  Brian had plenty of reasons to complain, but he never did.  In fact, he just smiled. 

Couldn't let Shane's Story ride out without bringing up his mother, Mel.  Selflessness personified.  A true gem.  Thank you.  

Never forget #3.  FFOF Forever.

I learned what true selflessness looked like from Shane.  Forever grateful for the example he set for all of us.  He was ALWAYS there.  He showed up.  Thank you Shane.
