[This is from the Blink Talk Conference]
Hi Vixen, No, I have not attended the school in San Rafeal. I have had
to face uncertaintity and fear. I am sure that all of us sooner or later
will encounter some type of wall that were just not too sure about. Look
at the worst possible thing that could happen to you, I don't know the
extent of your respiratory problems, I would hope that your attending
school would not place you in a life threatening situation. But, what if
it did? Is getting a dog guide worth the risk? Only you know the answer
to that. But, if that the worse thing that could happen is thatyou spin
your wheels for a couple of weeks and then go home without a pup, well
that stinks, but, it is not that the end of the world. You, at this
point, have absolutely no control over what is going to happen as far as
your respiratory problems are concerned. We have only a finite amount of
energy to expend while on this earth, don't waste it worrying on things
you have absolutely no control over. What ever happens, happens.
Whether you believe in a Devine plan or that things just happen on their
own accord is strictly between you and your religious beliefs. So just
take each new event as it comes and accept it for it is worth. I know
that talk is cheap, but I feel like I know what I'm talking about. I
havn't got respiratory problems, but like many of us out there in blink lind
being a blink is the least of my physical problems (Psychological
problems can be discussed at a later date).
Vixen, go on out there and blow them away, show them your stuff and have
a great time. I know it can be worrysome but you can control that by
thinking of the great times you are going to have ahead of you. If
getting the dog doensn't come to fruition, oh well, that's tuff, but you
will be still out there plugging away.
We all have faith in you, not a thing to worry about
Keeping the faith, Henry
