Luckily we will never know "what might have been".  Who's to say you wouldn't have been a doctor or a lawyer or a stateswoman???  You are indeed making the best of your current situation - just as you would have always done, just like we are all doing.  How do you like the phrase "the good lord will take you when he wants you", or "when your time is up, your time is up, nothing you can do about it."  (you never floated out of your body and decided to come back?)  i did.  something to think about. dave             In a message dated 3/5/2005 8:20:23 A.M.

Dave Dave,   That's a really interesting way to look at things, and there may well have been some truth in your mother's statement!  I know some people don't believe that everything happens for a reason, but I know for sure that if I hadn't of had my accident I wouldn't have started playing basketball, and if I hadn't of started playing basketball I would be inches away from my "big break" in the professional acting way of life.  I haven't really noticed it along the way, but it's now when I look back I can see just how different my life is now, and it's not all for the negative like loss of control of bodily movements.   Love Smurf xxx   The moral flabbiness born of the bitch goddess Success.
