March 29th 2003 @ 3:29pm (ironic?) I was in a horrible car accident. I thought I was dead. I was in the hospital for 6 days. I am reminded of this day everyday. I have a plate in my arm. The doctors told me that I would never have full use of my arm. It was rough for the first 2 years and I was weak. Within the last year I have had full use of my left arm and it is stronger than ever! (Did you get your tickets to the gun show yet???) (= Just kidding but really God has blessed me and 4 years ago today God spared my life for a reason and He has shown me little by little why He did. I know that I don't always live like I should but that is between me and God and I thank him everyday for The people and the circumstances in My life over the past 24 years. I realize now more than ever that life is way too short; I read a great poem over Christmas/New Years of 06 It said.....
Life is too short
Grudges are a perfect waste of happiness
Laugh when you can
Apologize when you should
And let go of what you can't change
Love deeply and forgive quickly
Take chances, Give everything
And have no regrets
Life is too short to be unhappy
You have to take the good with the bad
Smile when you're sad
Love what you've got and remember what you had
Always forgive but never forget
Learn from your mistakes but never regret
People change and things go wrong
But always remember life goes on
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets
So love the people who treat you right
Forget the ones who don't
And believe that everything happens for a reason
If you get a chance, take it
If it changes your life, let it
Nobody said that it would be easy
They just promised that it would be worth it.
I had a good amount of time at the end of 2006 to really just get by myself and find out just who I was and what I am made of. I am nothing without the Grace of God. And to any of you that prayed/ Pray for me. You are the reason I can say what I am right now. Thank You.I hope that in someway you can look back in your life and remember a time I was there for you and maybe even helped you. If you cant maybe I can in the future. I dont want to be well known, I am not after riches, I just want to help people and know that as insignificant life can seem at times, If I help one person in my lifetime be a better person, I made a difference in this world. I am everyone's friend but I don't let many people get close to me and I like it that way so…
"So love the people who treat you right
Forget the ones who don't"

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. To handle yourself use your head; to handle others use your heart. Anger is only one letter short of danger. If someone betrays you once, it's their fault; if they betray twice it your fault. Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss small events; small minds discuss people. He, who loses money, loses much; he who loses a friend loses much more; he who loses faith loses all. ..Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art. learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself. Friends you and me…..you brought another friend ….and then there were three…we started a group….our circle of friends…and like that circle…there is no beginning or end….yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that's why they call it the present -UNKNOWN
