"I wasn't having a good race: every step was more demanding than the one before. I was on the course feeling sorry for myself, just wanting the pain to be over.
Suddenly, this young boy came jogging up on my right and said with a big grin on his face "Beautiful day for a run huh?"
I looked down and saw that he had no legs. He was running on prosthetics made from carbon fiber. It was, indeed, a beautiful day for a run."
- John W. Quinn - author of Someone Like Me
No matter how bad things may seem at the moment, life is all a matter of perspective and attitude. Sometimes all we need is a little reminder, a pick me up if you will. Keep that in mind as we roll into 2011.*
