–Tony Dorsett
Isn't that true about everything we try to do in life? I have a patient that is always giving up. She fights us everyday about the things we want her to do to get better. Sometimes I'm the same way. I fight myself trying to get better. Then I remember I need to keep going. I hold onto the Love that is my life. I look around at my life and know that Love is the defining moment for everything I do. I still remember fighting so hard against falling in love with Scott but it was bigger then I could stop. We had our ups and downs but through it all we loved. I know that love will always be there. "It's okay! I love you!" gets me through each day. It is what I hold onto.
What motivates me? Why Hannah of course. How else would I be here without her? She keeps me going when I don't feel like taking another step. She has her own life but I know without me her life would be different. I don't want to even know what her life would be without me. I'm not so selfish to think I'm the only one who matters in this entire experience but I know that she still needs me in her life. I need her too! She is an amazing beautiful young woman. We may have our moments but she will always be the love of my life!
Inspiration! How do I find it to keep going? I don't know I guess that is where Courage becomes my inspiration. The courage of other's to face their lives without giving up. I'm just a face in the crowd. I don't do anything different then so many others. I'm not perfect. I make mistakes everyday. I have learned to have the courage to try again. I'm willing to try love again. Isn't that what is my inspiration - "Loves Everlasting Courage." It will take the courage to keep going for the rest of my days. I can't do that without the love that is in my life. I will keep reaching because courage is what gets me out of bed each day. Courage is what it takes to know I may just be a face in a crowd but my story matters to at least a few people. Courage of others to fight for our country, save lives, fight crime, battle fires and the list goes on; inspires me to know my life does matter and it is up to me to have my own courage to make at least a small difference for the good of others. "It's okay! I love you!"
