A few months before 9/11 the company I worked for closed and I was given the option of a severance or a job in the NYC office next to the Verizon building. Because I was having such a hard time due to AS I took the severance package. My co-workers that took the job the NYC could see the faces of the jumpers from their office. I have to thank AS too. I know that I could never have recovered from that. It has been over ten years since I have been in the city because I still can’t bring myself to go to the site.

If you study the major world religions, we all have the same underlying teaching on how to be a good human and how to treat other living things. So the idea that any of this was done in the name of religion is asinine.

The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that
one comes from a strong will,
and the other from a strong won't. ~Henry Ward Beecher
Wishing you perseverance every day and obstinacy when you want to give up!
