Ryan75's Journal, 27 January 2012

This was an emotionally strenuous week. I do not say this often... Someone once said that you cannot hate all roses just because one thorn scratched you. But what if you were beaten down with a cactus at the time of your life when the world should have been a beautiful place...

I wonder how many people would have known or perhaps can remember Leo Buscaglia. He was a motivational speaker at the University of Southern California in the 1980's. It always struck me how sincere this guy was (was because he died in the late 90’s) and how one could actually see the emotions in his eyes when the camera’s zoomed in on his face.

If you would like to do yourself a favor – see some of his work on youtube.

Of course, I remember Leo Buscaglia. (Of course because you're like half my age...LOL). Thanks for sharing it. Sorry about your work week, Ryan, and for the people who made it stressful. Hopefully the weekend and your cycling will make everything better.

I'm sorry to hear that you had such a hard week. Just remember that even a cactus can save your life in a water-less desert. Sometimes we have to struggle through the crap to get to the better stuff. Hopefully good times are just around the corner for you :)
