    didn't get that so i guess they won't be using mine. blah.

    so......
    i'll share what i had to say


    Breakerfall



    I’ll tell you upfront, I’m disabled. So that right there should let you know how I interpret the song. I have a choice in life. I can be resentful, mean and nasty and blame my attitude and troubles on my disability, or try my best everyday to do what I can. ‘She can blame the world, …. But only love can breakerfall’ I wouldn’t be here today without love. Love from my parents. Love from my friends. ‘She’s if own disease crying to her dog’ While I don’t consider my disability a disease, there’s a possibility of my mind being caught in a depression that may stem for my disability. That’s the possible disease…being eaten alive with bad thoughts. What’s the antidote to that creeping disease right beneath the surface? Love. Only love can break my fall.

    Thats very powerful I think they will use that- I really like it and I will always think of your words now when I listen to Breakerfall. You know it took a little bit to get the email back from them, yours is surely on the way. Thank you for sharing and not only great words but you are very much admired for your positive strength.

    Thank you.

    I was just going to say I hope I didn’t derail the thread with my ‘I’m your inspiration’ bullshit. :lol:

    It’s hard to shut the pieholes of pj fans, but I’ve found I’ve got a certain knack for it! :mrgreen:

    I got no reply back to say they would used it. surprisingly. So I posted it here now because I thought it was kickass and wanted to share. na...doubt i'll hear back. i looked at my email i sent that 2/8. really it's no biggie. i don't care.
    probably not getting in the book for the same reason this thread came to a grinding hault. :roll:

    BUT PLEASE...I DID NOT ATTEND FOR THAT TO BE A THREAD KILLER :lol:

    Hello,

    Blondieblue - yes, we are using the story you emailed in. Sorry I did not reply to you sooner. We appreciate you sharing it.

    It has been great to hear from everyone who has participated, and we welcome anyone else who would like to send an email our way.

    To give a preview, some amazing stories will be included. Some powerful, like Blondieblue's, others funny, like how a football team once won a championship game because of the song Bugs.

    -Tim
