Members Mike LX-R Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 "A warrior must focus his attention on the link between himself and his death. Without remorse or sadness or worrying, he must focus his attention on the fact that he does not have time and let his acts flow accordingly. He must let each of his acts be his last battle on earth. Only under those conditions will his acts have their rightful power. Otherwise they will be, for as long as he lives, the acts of a fool." -Carlos Casta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 100 watt Posted December 4, 2012 Members Share Posted December 4, 2012 As others have stated, Im glad you are at peace, and trying to make your last days the best you can. You & your family are in all of our thoughts. Much respect to you. You're a way better man than me. I dont think I could deal with your sitiation anywhere near the level you are. I'm glad you've stuck around. I dont know you from Adam..but when it all boils down to it, you come here for the same reasons the lot of us do. Hell..I think of it as some kinda messed up out of whack Fraternity..just without the rituals, handshakes, (no Charvel Dan joke intended), & symbolism. We're "Brothers" in one way or another. Reading your posts has always made me respect you, as you stand for your beliefs, no matter what anyone else has thrown you..and right or wrong, you always seem to come out the better man. Thats something I admire. Look past my trashy avatars..my sick sense of humor.. my filthy mouth..etc.. I'm speaking as a man and as a human being. Your a good man, and you're among friends. I think we all can learn a lesson from you. God Be With You Harley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Weathered Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 I'll echo what everyone has said so well before me - I am in awe of how much grace you are showing in this time, and it is a tribute to your faith and beliefs. We've had a few go-rounds in the past, but I have to say that I don't think I could ever accept my own mortality with so much peace. I wish you all of the best during your time on Earth.

This place can be brutal, but you've never relented your position and what you believe in.

Members Lord ToneKing Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 Bob, I am deeply saddened to hear this news. Though I don't personally know you, I consider you a friend and appreciate all the kind words and encouragement you gave me in the past during some very bad times in my marriage. I will never forget you BrotherJohn 14:1-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
