You don't have to give birth to someone to have a family.

It seems to me that unless you or someone very close to you has had a bad head injury you really can't fathom it. You have no concept of what it is all about. It was so difficult for my whole family not just me.

My wife my family my friends - they've all taught me things about love and what that emotion really means. In a nutshell loving someone is about giving not receiving.

When you look at Prince Charles don't you think that someone in the Royal family knew someone in the Royal family?

The moment someone chooses to trust in Jesus Christ his sins are wiped away and he is adopted into God's family. That individual is set apart as a child of God with a sacred purpose.

When someone has cancer the whole family and everyone who loves them does too.

I'm sure not afraid of success and I've learned not to be afraid of failure. The only thing I'm afraid of now is of being someone I don't like much.
