About Me | I believe… that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different. I believe… that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you. I believe… that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help. I believe… that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being. I believe… that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon. I believe… that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel. I believe… that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have. I believe… that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated. I believe… that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself. I believe… that no matter how bad your heart is broken that the world doesn’t stop for your grief. I believe… that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become. I believe… that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other. And just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do. I believe… that you shouldn’t be eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever. I believe… that it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be. I believe… that you should always leave loved ones with loving well wishes. It may be the last time you see them. I believe… that you can keep going long after you can’t. I believe… that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel. I believe… that we don’t have to change friends, if we understand that friends change. I believe… that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you once in a while and you must forgive them for that. I believe… that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love. I believe… that you either control your attitude or it controls you. I believe… that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, that passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place. I believe… that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences. I believe… that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. I believe… that money is a lousy way of keeping score. I believe… that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time. I believe… that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down, will be the ones who help you get back up. Life has blessed me with many things. One of them is the ability to accept the present and understand there are things I can not change. Though, challenged often, I use the determination in my personality to rise above the rest. You may not like the way I do things, however you will never forget how I did them. I had a major spine surgery in February 2008 to remove a tumor growing on my spinal cord. I spent a year and a half after recovering from it. I have been across the country for my spine including, Cleveland Clinic in OH. In September 2009 I admitted myself into the Chronic Pain Rehab Program and the Courage Center in MN. I was severely addicted to strong narcotic pain killers including the very dangerous drug fentanyl. I had the Doctors I trusted, to blame for this. Without the approval of the pain Doctors, and under the care of the excellent team of Doctors at the courage center I was removed from all narcotics. I challenged myself through a 3 week transformation. Physically, emotionally and mentally. It was by far one of the harder things I have had to do in my life. I personally thank all my family and all of my very loyal friends. Thank you to everyone who supported me, during those hard times! I truly do appreciate it! My life turned around. I havd decided to start a new adventure in my life. My love and passion for law, as well as a opportunity beyond reason has provided me a path to follow that passion...To become a lawyer. I have three amazing children. Every day they show me the true meaning of my life. My wife, Marriage is no easy road. I think both her and I understand now, that in order to be the best of friends, and husband and wife you need to learn to support one another. To let each other fall now and then. No matter how hard we fall. Always be the first to help each other up. My wife proves to me every day, that deep inside me is an even better man. A man I have not met yet. My family...I went from some of my lowest points in my life and now to some of the highest. I am thankful every day I have the family I have. Including my wonderful in laws. I am truly blessed to have all of you. I really have a true balance from care free to the opposite of that even. Again don...(read more) |
