Pax Vobiscum!

Received the comment on my blog and was good to see that someone has read and cared to respond a bit.

(Kat3005) Writing is definitely not a problem and if I am able shed light upon something asked then it is I who should be grateful, especially to be able to learn and to share with others period.

I am responsible for my own actions that landed me where I am, I blame no one. I have been able to grow mentally & spiritually; and to obtain various levels of book knowledge - things which if left to my own on the outside I would have never had the priveledge to know because chances are I would have been dead well be-fore my 21st birthday.

I seen a segment on ESPN today (7/9/2017) called "Ring Bearer" and it really touched me deeply, because it really put something in perspective. This lady "Amy Tiss" I believe her name was - is a Chicago Cubs fan, and when they won the World Series - she was one of the fans chosen to be a Ring Bearer this year to present a ring to one of hte players; what really touched me so deeply is that this lady was a quadriplegic w/cerebral palsy - yet she had the most beautiful smile and humble character that I've ever seen; and you could see as well feel her elation; her exstatics joy was enough to bring one to tears - In one part she said something like: I don't now why this has happened to me; and I don't question it - "why it has"; but I am thankful that it did! I was awed by this woman's gigantic stature;

She didn't ask to be stricken with such a crippling disease - yet she wasn't angry nor was she self-pitying - she accepted her situation and gained enormous strength in it, gained such profound peace and courage I've rarely seen in anyone. And today she definitely became both an inspiration and a hero to me!

I have nothing to complain nor whine about in light of what this young woman has endure; I chose my circumstances - she didn't! I am ever awed by her and people like her and to them I owe all my gratitude for the help and strength which they have leant me in my 32 years of incarceration: Surely these are the true shining stars!

Many are our journeys, a thousand yesterdays;
To each star a new destiny, to each seed a bloming
flower of mysteries.

I've learnt that its not really all the good times, nor the easy roads that defines us or leads us into enlightenment - self discovery.

It's the trajedies and hardships that truly temper us and leads us into the merciful arms of tranquility and self-awareness of our Holy Guardian Angel.
