Never Say Never
I have loved watching the Olympics. I enjoy watching the different venues, the skiing, the skating, bobsled, luge, and all the rest. I am fasinated and as I watch I ask myself, "How do they get their bodies to do those things?" I think even more than watching the events, I have loved the stories about the athletes. Many of these athletes have fought to be where they are. They have been badly injured, some have beat the odds to be on the olympic teams and some have lost loved ones. These athletes don't give up, they don't throw in the towel, they don't feel sorry for themselves, they just keep working, keep focused on their goals and get up and try again. They are all in Canada living their dream and doing what they love. Sometimes they mention that one of the athletes got their MoJo back or found their MoJo. I have wondered exactly what that is and wondered if I even have any MoJo! I as have struggled this last year, it has made me stop and think about what my goals and dreams are and what am willing to do to accomplish them. Just like these athletes we can always make a comeback. There are still things I can't do that I was able to do before the accident and I know what with hard work and determination I will be able to do those things again. We can get that Olympic attitude, the I won't give up, don't ever say never, just keep striving and working, attitude. Who knows we might even get our MoJo back. So remember to never, say never and like the saying goes, " With God nothing is impossible." We can do great things with His help, as He is the best coach you'll ever find!
