Ever since you were a little boy you would turn lemons into lemonade. At around 4 years old an adult acquaintance of ours was teasing you that for your birthday you were only getting sticks and rocks. You said "that's ok I'll use them as bats and balls". You have always turned what could potentially be a negative into a positive. No matter what challenge has come your way you have never felt sorry for yourself and have always found the lesson in the situation and triumphed over adversity.

So proud of you and your accomplishments.

“I could either accept the decision and find areas of my life to shift my attention to or be miserable for the six-month recovery. I try not to choose misery whenever I can.” Such a wise perspective.

Every obstacle is an opportunity in a scary costume. It falls to us to reframe: this is scary and might undo me —> I will get the best of this and grow from it.

Thank you for writing, Kyle.
