Mike, When I called you today...it was right before my settlement started. Bridget McGee came in as I was talking to you. So I just had to explain how we were connected. Out came my iPad so I could share this blog right at the closing table.

Sandy is an amazing woman and you are an amazing friend.

She is a true inspiration. Reminding us that complaining and being negative will not do us good. Look at her, her smile, i can see her joy from the heart. Say my hi to her Mike, and tell her how amazing she is.

Hi Mike--what a great story. Sandy is one incredible human being. Why is it that people with the most "difficulties" are alwyas the ones that show us how to live?

Great story, Mike. Thanks for the post. Sadly, I am a cheapskate, so I didn't buy the $12.95 book on Amazon.

But I am smart. Bought the Kindle version for $9.99. Gotta' love the Kindle!

Great motivation post about Sandy. Just looking at her picture she is smiling so big which reflects a lot of confidence and pride. Our little problems that we personally have are way overstated by our attitudes that we make them. I love Sandy's spirit!

Steph,

Sandy's strength of spirit is an inspiration!

Jon,

Thanks for buying the book for your Kindle reader; you won't be disappointed!

Janet,

Yes, she is! Maybe the reason has to do with perseverance.

Rob,

Friend her on Facebook and say Hi yourself! You'll make a friend.

Margaret,

Thank you for calling; it's wonderful to think of you sitting at closing with your IPad, sharing Sandy Morgan's story.

We can learn the most from people just like Sandy!

There is a group of young men from my high school helping a young man named Darius tackle MS. His story is pretty incredible as well. I attached the trailor to the movie they produced.

I love stories of people like Sandy & Darius!

I love this, thank you for sharing her story with all of us. Its true, when I start to complain I try to take a step back and think about whether the issues is really that big of a deal, something worth all the negative power and energy I'm giving it. Sometimes it helps me put things in perspective. Thanks again

This is indeed a great story and thank you for sharing it Mike. People need to stop giving excuses because impossible is really nothing. Anyone can achieve anything if they just put in the effort.

Wow Mike

Pretty inspiring. It's funny that almost always when we feel that we are the only one with life's issues, that we come across something or someone that make our situation look so small and insignificant.

Thanks for the post.

That's really the truth of it; thanks for commenting.

Yes she is! Thanks for stopping by.

Gab,

You comment is a challenge to me this morning; I need to put in a lot more effort today.

Kim,

You're welcome. It's an eye-opener, isn't it?

Howard & Susan,

I find that's true for me too. Thank you!

Michael,

It's good to see you; I hadn't heard about "I AM" statements until the week I met Sandy. She's an inspiration.

Paul,

You're welcome!

Margie,

Thanks for the link to Darius' story!

Fern,

Thank you for commenting, and for the encouragement.

Fernando,

I hadn't thought about it that way; see you on your blog.

A pretty amazing guy has pretty amazing friends.......that just figures. I remember a nun once saying 'birds of a feather flock together'.........there is truth in that. (Yes, I was in Catholic school for 3 years.....I hated it)
