Gidday,
Welcome to the site as well,In answer to your Question...yes you make sense to me .
I feel that it has to do with positive thinking and an unselfish attitude,it has amazed me that this one time when i was in intense pain[ not physical]my path crossed on a bus with a woman who was suffering [terminal]illnesses much worse than i ever thought a person could stand.She was like a light to me.I got off the bus laughing,actually smiling,she really showed me that know matter how down and out you are,you can still smile and laugh in the adversity of the chaos happening to you.
She weighed 45kilos.,had half her jaw missing from cancer,had stomach and pancreatic cancer and she told me the most amazing stories in those 2 hours..and she laughed every 2nd minute. One Cool LADY ...I had just lost a baby and i got off the bus looking forward.
starting to lose the train here..yep great post from you bro,catchya jude2
