He lost an arm in the accident, but eventually, he gained a powerful new perspective for his life. Here’s an excerpt from a February speech that inspired kids. I hope these words inspire you, too. Feel free to share your story in which you faced obstacles and created opportunities.</i><br> <br> <a href="http://stressreliefcenter.blogspot.com/2011/03/facing-obstacles-and-creating.html#more">Read more »</a>http://stressreliefcenter.blogspot.com/2011/03/facing-obstacles-and-creating.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Howard)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-41610785557636023.post-2340522210649954048Mon, 21 Feb 2011 08:56:00 +00002011-02-21T02:56:54.232-06:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcCv6Kfgh2xm8zRFAXE9p1oL6uvzzozSM1FzWTDI1lc0XyeKWI4i6jpYOXj5R9d9H5WHRmm7Eay2MoxqDH9WmIo_HP03usj1ubSnP6l1UDcTBdEoeZ1pfjg0WIPbO_ZyMPB5gWhdt8gQ/s1600/piggyback-happy-young-couple-enjoying-themselves-outdoors.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcCv6Kfgh2xm8zRFAXE9p1oL6uvzzozSM1FzWTDI1lc0XyeKWI4i6jpYOXj5R9d9H5WHRmm7Eay2MoxqDH9WmIo_HP03usj1ubSnP6l1UDcTBdEoeZ1pfjg0WIPbO_ZyMPB5gWhdt8gQ/s1600/piggyback-happy-young-couple-enjoying-themselves-outdoors.jpg"></a></div>Enjoy this day of celebration. Some people may see it as an obligation to buy something to punctuate those words, “I Love You.” Instead, consider Valentine’s Day an opportunity to reflect on your own commitment and how to express it. What would happen if you and your partner pondered steps to build and create the intimacy that you both desire?  Would you come up with the same ideas?<br> <br> It requires a little faith in the strength of your relationship to ask tough questions. What’s missing? What’s challenging? Don’t worry. The desire to make things better gets things moving in the right direction. <br> <br> <br> <a href="http://stressreliefcenter.blogspot.com/2011/02/valentines-day-to-be-or-not-to-be.html#more">Read more »</a>http://stressreliefcenter.blogspot.com/2011/02/valentines-day-to-be-or-not-to-be.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Howard)0
