Mount Elbrus journal entry:
August 20, 2002
“Two years ago I feared I might not walk someday, due to my multiple
sclerosis. I am now beginning to think of my MS as a gift. It has
brought about many changes in my life and has shaped me into the
stronger person that I am now. I have learned that life is
unpredictable and not always easy, but if we approach it with a
feeling of gratitude, we can find the positive things that help us
to grow. These things shape who we are. I am thankful for all that
has been given to me, all that has been taken away and all that I
have been left with. My life is truly blessed.”
