 CS> When I was 5, an accident placed me in a wheelchair.  When I was 8, I
 CS> walked free of it forever.  I wasnt ignorant.  When I was 9, I was
 CS> temporarily blinded for6 months.  I did not know if it would end, nor
 CS> did the Doctors, but I went to school and learned to listen well.
 CS> When my sight came backfully, I was not behind.  I was not ignorant
 CS> because I used what I had, to the best I could.  Had I stayed blind,
 CS> I would have done rather well I think.
I've read and enjoyed many of your messages, and I've always thought there 
was something very special about you. I have all of your tutorials about the 
various ways to set up a Telegard Bulletin Board System and related software. 
I think that the above paragraph tends to explain why you are such a positive 
person. You are a person of strong character and determination. When you get 
knocked down, you get back up and become tougher because of the experience. 
Thanks for sharing this very personal information. Most folks have not been 
knocked down this hard, so this may encourage many to use the gifts that God 
has given them.
