Be kind

Ahhh!    I hate mental illness. 

Make sure you're kind people, you don't know what battles they're dealing with. 

Everyone can see and understand a physical disability.  We tend to go out of our way to help them, such getting to door,  letting them go first, we feel sorry for their circumstance, etc. 

Not many people can see a mental disability, even fewer people understand it.  Hence we do very little or give two thoughts about why they are acting the way they are. Many times we pass judgement, they're a bad parent, why don't they discipline him, I wouldn't do that, if he can just control himself and so forth. 

Just because someone looks all right on the outside, it doesn't mean that they're alright on the inside. Make it a habit to be kind to everyone.

Focus?

Another week has gone by, a little but of excitement this past week with Kurtis breaking his ankle and requiring surgery to fix it.  Nothing like more challenges to make life more interesting.

I'm finishing off some  reading for a couple of meetings this week. 

Training has slowed down, feel like I've hit a wall. The motivation to get engaged is lacking. Got to find some way o recharge the batteries.
