To only stop then. I stop many times a day but it isn't just to pee.

Courage and determination can change everything. A young woman in her thirties was a dancer from a very young age. She lost her left arm in an accident and had fallen into a state of depression for a few years. Someone then asked her to lead a group of children in dance. She still loved dancing and wanted to dance again.
 
She tried some of  the old steps but, having lost her arm, she had also lost her balance. It took a long time before she could even attempt a simple rotation without falling over. That is when she heard of a young man in his twenties who had lost a leg in an accident. He had also fallen into the state of denial, depression, and emotional anger.
 
She decided to persuade him to dance with her. He had never danced in his life, let alone with only one leg. He categorically refused but she didn't give up on him.  Finally, he said he would try, saying he had no other motivations in life. She began to teach him the dance. After several attempts and failures (he did not know how to use his muscles since he had never had a concept for the dance and struggled with the discouragement as well as the anger).
 
They eventually returned together and began serious training. They hired a choreographer for designing moves adapted for them and here is the result.

Ordering a pizza in 2015?
This is funny, but the scary part about it is that it's probably not too far away from being reality.

Drinking from my saucer (A very spiritual and true poem)

I've never made a fortune, and it's probably too late now.
But I don't worry about that much, I'm happy anyhow
And as I go along life's way,
I'm reaping better than I sowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

Haven't got a lot of riches,
and sometimes the going's tough
But I've got loving ones all around me,
and that makes me rich enough.
I thank GOD for his Blessings,
and the Mercies HE's bestowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

I remember times when things went wrong,
My faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once the dark clouds broke,
and the sun peeped through again.

So LORD, help me not to gripe,
about the tough rows I have hoed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

If GOD gives me strength and courage,
When the way grows steep and rough.
I'll not ask for other blessings,
I'm already Blessed enough.

And may I never be too busy,
to help others bear their loads..
Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

When I think of how many people in this world have it worse
than I do,  I realize just how  BLESSED WE  really are.

The ballet was very touching, the pizza thing was very scary!! I'd read the poem before and it's lovely, good to look at life from an overflowing point of view.

[Tommie]

I'd never seen any of it. I already shared the dance on Facebook. I'll wait awhile before I share the others. They're beautiful, scary like Annie said, and touching. How do you find these things??

[peach]

I don't go looking for anything Tommie, don't have the time or the inclination, I wait till my brother sends me emails about them some I share, some I don't

[Tommie]

The ones you do are good 'uns!

[peach]

I only post the ones I think are good, glad you enjoy them.
