Impossible…
I was a very active, competitive and reasonably successful man, all through my life I’ve done things and been to places most others wouldn’t have done, I say wouldn’t not couldn’t because those things were important to me but not necessarily to anyone else. Because I had good, well paying jobs I was able to travel a lot, 23 countries to be exact, in these visits I didn’t lay on beaches during the day and go clubbing at night, neither have ever apppealed to me. I explored and experienced different cultures, now that and all the memories I have makes me happy.
I was born in a two up, two down council house where nine of us lived in a tough part of Liverpool. I was a typical Liverpool lad until I left school at 15 and went to the Army Apprentice College in Chepstow, South Wales… The “attitude” was beaten out of me and put me into a mental state that changed… improved my life.
Between 20 and 45 yrs old I did more than 99% of people will do in a lifetime, I did 834 skydives, I was actually in the Guinness book of records between 1989 and 1997, I was a hang glider, scuba diver, mountain biker, rock climber and I got my pilots license in 43 hours, the national average in the USA where I learned to fly, was 75 hours….I was 48 when I was diagnosed with MS, so life as I knew it changed.
I know I’ve done a lot but there is so much more I will do when I’m healed and I know I will be, of that I am 100% certain… the heading of this post is Impossible…
Impossible is not a fact its only an opinion….
