Nick! This guy is one Fantastic Aussie Battler! He is so inspiring and he gets depressed sure but he doesn't give up and he never gives in.

He can laugh at himself and make fun of others without malice. This guy inspired me completely OUT of self pity.

I used to be full of self pity because I couldn't do this or that, because I'd lost my fantasic life...this guy really made me look at myself and realise that yes my life was different, it was changed...but it is still a life and it can still do good for myself and others, I just needed to adapt; adapt I did.

Yes I still get depressed, I still have anxiety and still get panic attacks; I still have agoraphobia but I can still be a person with goals and dreams and I can aspire to them.

One day at a time, leaving out the self pity, because I have enough to deal with, without having to bear the burden of self pity, that is one thing that is just too heavy to carry.

Thanks Naturefreak for posting this...I haven't seen him in a while and just seeing the opening scene really uplifted me...this guy is a hero of mine,

Rhiannon

He is very inspiring. I only wish I could muster up the strength to embrace life and get out of bed. Thanks for sharing.

I wasn't on PC...I had logged off. Was moving.

Where are you ((((((((((((((BC/Naturefreak))))))))))))))--you are sorely missed.

Such a great video..."attitude of gratitude"-- I am hoping, wherever you are, you are feeling well--------------------this makes me sad. So many of your threads are still here...still an inspiration, new people bring you back. I (selfish, I know) miss you.--theo
