Great words of support from everyone
Determination is a powerful ally, it can be a powerful foe.

Anyone determined to shift the quality of life upwards -even a scintilla- can do so and its a heady feeling, knowing that the power is in you

Anyone determined to remain trapped as a powerless victim will have a heck of a time enjoying life.

I am glad we have the choice.

I admire much of what I read here and get strength from your victories and positive determination
