It’s Friday night, and while most people are out enjoying drinks and laughter, there’s nothing wrong with that. However, people like myself and my friend Ruben don’t take days off. Right now, Half Animal® is supporting Ruben and his future endeavors, regardless of the outcome. When someone shows you respect and loyalty, you hold onto that.
I’ve been working nonstop for the past couple of weeks, dealing with just about everything. But nothing can get in the way of your destiny. Mark my words—this is only going to get crazier. This is just the beginning, especially for me, because the bases are loaded. One thing is for sure: if you are not a decent human being with a moral compass and values, you won’t be asked to take on the responsibility for others’ safety or participate in once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.
And for those who say I don’t care, remember, I was paralyzed from the neck down. I could’ve thrown my whole life away and had every excuse to demoralize myself over a moment or cheat myself over a night. Lying to people, thinking you have everyone fooled, only puts you in the wrong place at the wrong time. Everyone is looking for an escape.
I hope everyone gets the opportunity to have people in their life who truly care for them, mentor them, and say, “Hey, that’s enough. Time to get back to work.” With that said, have a good night. I’ve got the whole weekend to work through, and then my favorite day of the week—Monday! I can’t wait to dream again and, most importantly, support a good friend who needed that little extra push. Now, he’s on the Olympic team! Always in support Half Animal®
