have strength

I have decided to start a new blog because I wasn't happy with my first few.  Lately i've been thinking a lot about the strength of "heart" and what it is to have heart.   I can tell you if you're looking for the answer don't watch the Utah Jazz, just kidding.  To me, having heart is when you put everything you have into something, all the effort in the world no matter the outcome or the affect.  I have a friend who is an amazing example of someone who has heart. Despite the fact that he is legally blind he has always given it his all.  He inspires me in so many ways.  He was born with a disease in his eyes that completely obstructs his vision to the point of being classified as "legally blind" he'll never be able to get his drivers license and that's an example of how bad it is.  Does he let it get him down?  Not even a little bit... That has always been something to inspire me.  People do tend to forget and appreciate what he really goes through with his eyes, and he's still one of the most amazing people out there and that's why people forget.  I have a rare disorder in my arms called, "Ulnar Nerve Entrapment" and it has been very disheartening and discouraging.  I have been kept from doing most of my hobbies along with everyday activities for 2 years now.  Something that has helped me to stay happy and be grateful is my friend.  His eyes have been bad for his whole life and the entire 11 years i've known him now I honestly haven't heard him complain about it one time. That alone right there is enough to inspire me.  I'm sorry to those of my friends that have heard me complain about my arms countless times, but I appreciate your support. I shouldn't complain though, I have humbled myself because of the experience and I appreciate my body a lot more. I am grateful to have the use of my arms, and I think that's how my friend feels.  At least he is not fully blind.  Thanks for showing me the kind of passion and heart it takes to get through this life man.  Love ya
