Or you don't kill yourself like two of my disabled Veteran friends did when it finally dawned on them that they would never succeed at their dreams. (That was in spite of all the shrink mind control drugs that the V.A. had them on).

That's some extreme advice, but I think I understand the purpose.



Just do your best and have no regrets, as I learned from Pokemon.

I was by NO MEANS advocating Suicide, I was using my two friends as an example that you can either set your sights too high, or as both my friends did, after becoming injured in such a way that the original goals were no longer attainable. THAT can lead to severe depression.
