Today's Inspirational Quote:

"It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless
you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived
at all -- in which case, you fail by default."

-- J.K. Rowling

My dear Jeanette,

I do not know Mr j.k.Rowling,however,the word impossible should
not even exist.Napoleon Bonaparte,once said,Impossible is not
french.
I agree with the man.I beleive Mr Rowling is the one that lived
too cautiously.
Everything that is honest, I have tried,and was successful at it.

I am a simple man,with a desire to succeed.In 2 years,I became a Tennis Pro,I did drag racing building my own car.Played semi pro hockey at 35 as a goaltender.
I have vanquished 3 mental deseases,Part of my brain is destroyed
due to alcool abuse 36 years ago,that started me on my PATH,
I have had 5 heart operations,the first one ,I had one chance out of a hundred to survive,I am writing to you.Both my knees
need surgery,I have 8 tears,too much sports.No pain exists because I decided so.

So my dear Jeanette,as you can see if one decides nothing but
nothing is impossible.

With deep respect
