What a wonderful inspiring story and great courage that this young man has to get his life together like that after all of the life experiences he had faced.

Wow what a wonderful story.
I too had lots to think about from my childhood and upon doing a course on Sacred Contracts…saw my life as one golden opportunity instead of feeling a victim. Thank you Shirley!

I truly believe, the easiest way to find yourself is to
’simply let go’, this is a perfect example.

Life is short and for the majority life is a bliss, but for the minority life is not so good. But the two balances have to be, so that our world is not a bore. The rich help the poor, the poor put their love into people who are wanting to be loved and the wanting to be loved put their lives into loving animals and finding their boundaries. This brings much satisfaction to these people and slowly their lives turn around. Maybe not all the way: but during their life’s journey, these people always have an interesting story to tell. That’s what makes planet earth very interesting. Yes, we live in paradise, whether we’re rich, not so rich or very poor. As we are only the planet with life on it, and a very small planet at that, we are so lucky to have all the chemicals here on earth to make it support life. So if you hear wingers on your journey, please let them know that life is a bliss on our beautiful planet.
This man you have met was ment-to-be to remind you of how lucky you, your wife and child are. Good luck with your trip and hope you meet many more of these people as a constant reminder of how lucky we all are.

I must admit that I read this story at least 3 times and got a buzz out of it each time. We are all capable of lifting oneself out of these situations, but sometimes we just need that little push. With all the problems Marion and I have gone through many people have said “how did you cope?” There is only one answer to this question and it really is quite simple,we woke up this morning to another beautiful day and what more could we want? Life is too short to worry about what if’s. Another day to make more friends and help where ever we can. Yes it feels wonderful. All the best for the trip, Peter.

Hi what a tragic story with a wonderful ending. How true it is to give, my father always said to me if I had a $1.00 for every meal I had cooked for others over the yrs I would be rich. Well maybe not rich but alot more financial. I have had some rough times, lent money never to be seen again rented to stangers but I have been paying it forward for 35 yrs. I have recently started my own business and give discounts all the time, I wonder if i’m in the wrong job. I give too much but I feel great for it.I even recently shared a motel room i had booked,thinking it had a dble bunk and single bed. When I had offered to share my accom. with a stranded couple from LA in Brisbane. When we entered the room it only had a double bed. Shocked I said it was ok and I folded the quilt from the bed on the floor and gave them the bed. They had a bigger trip than me next day. All I said was pay it forward. 3mths later i recieved american money thanking me covering the cost of the room. We all just have to have faith in this crazy mixed up world and believe in people the more you give the better you feel. so to everyone out there give a little and you will get satisfaction.
