By the way, thank you for your comment on my blog. <br /><br />I am not sure that your obvious compassion should have disqualified you from working with the disabled if that was or is your passion. Maybe your initial emotional reaction was just a response to how needed you realized you were. Maybe being tough is important, but so is being a genuinely caring person, and a person with a tough exterior may not give off the warm fuzzies that he or she does truly care. Just my opinion.<br /><br />Great post!wsbharkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12896808265604736376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-24314693016110769282012-04-06T16:55:37.156-07:002012-04-06T16:55:37.156-07:00I admire your determination to preserve your memor...I admire your determination to preserve your memory. <br /><br />As far as having desire goes, sometimes knowing what one is, and isn't, good at outweighs desire.Sarah Tokeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13273148070092101085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-33882173569605230722012-04-05T13:38:26.245-07:002012-04-05T13:38:26.245-07:00Oh, yes, determination is certainly something whic...Oh, yes, determination is certainly something which comes with need!Liz Brownleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00391982640958944942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-15629967857335615282012-04-05T11:23:00.308-07:002012-04-05T11:23:00.308-07:00Determination is definitely a good trait to have i...Determination is definitely a good trait to have in this world. It can see you through many obstacles. But it won't see you through all of them. The key is to know your limits and when you realize that something is extremely difficult but doable with determination is wherein you'll find some measure of success.Michael Offutt, Phantom Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557969104886174930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-26013875244150645222012-04-05T08:59:15.575-07:002012-04-05T08:59:15.575-07:00Your determination to keep your memory is a good e...Your determination to keep your memory is a good example. I know a wonderful lady, 87 years old, who still takes care of her 50 year old dissabled daughter.

I do admire those with the patience and determination to help.<br /><br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://psalmsunday.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> A Few Words </a><br />An A to Z Co-host blogArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-6550618487592831202012-04-04T20:01:19.106-07:002012-04-04T20:01:19.106-07:00Hi Munir,

I salute those who embrace their abilities beyond their disabilities. And, dear friend, I salute you.klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-5172274791530755652012-04-04T18:43:48.923-07:002012-04-04T18:43:48.923-07:00"Determination!"

Which made it easier to deal when I became disabled. The human spirit is indomitable, the human nature is to be determined in doing what we want. People like Helen Keller smash our assumptions. I'm grateful for the Helens of the world.Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-67366338590054401202012-04-04T18:20:09.148-07:002012-04-04T18:20:09.148-07:00Shelly said it all for me!Shelly said it all for me!fishduckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07334973392362918928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800160462094633117.post-26535159622352726492012-04-04T18:16:32.623-07:002012-04-04T18:16:32.623-07:00This is a very inspirational post, my friend.
