Have to say i wasn't sure how this would be received in here. It's not pretty and I don't talk about that period much, there were other things in 97 not just this, maybe I'll write the whole story out if it might help someone heck anyone. 
 Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure

It's not pretty and I don't talk about that period much, there were other things in 97 not just this, maybe I'll write the whole story out if it might help someone heck anyone.  These post stay on the net forever.  You will never know how many people will read it now and in the future it may help.  Great post  for sure.  A good reminder to me   I'm relying on myself lately instead of my creator like I should be and I need to re focus.  Been up tight lately. Nothing serious just wanting to make  life changes.    So even though I'm not going through anything dramatic or challenging now  your post reminded me to refocus.  Along with that I will rember it when things get  rough in the future.     Thanks for sharing. |  |  |

Mike, I'm glad that God blessed you in your hour of need because you are helping others find that same blessing. Thank you for sharing!!
