[Nfbf-l] Get Ready NFBF!!! National Convention Orlandomanyyears to come!!!

[Kirk]

Matt my friend, when will you start to accept your blindness and move 
forward without complaints? I have been listening to you complain about 
everything you are in contact with ever since you started commenting on this 
site again. I have knoown you for many years and you have always had such a 
negative attitude about most everything and it is truly not what is your 
perception of your surroundings as much as it is you and your negativity 
about life in general! Please get counseling or something so you can start 
to move forward without such a negative attitude and perhaps your comments 
would be more enjoyable to read. I had many friends of mine that were there, 
as was I, and even the Totals with  me said once they learned their way 
around they thought it was easy to do and they loved the Hotel.I have to say 
however, they all have a very positive attitude about life and have accepted 
the fact that ,YES, they are in fact totally blind and things are different 
but it doesn't have to be miserable to enhjoy their lives. You need to get 
help to learn how to think positive about your life and quit complaining 
about all that  is around you. Once you embrace your blindness and it's 
lifestyle, then my friend, I feel you will  start to smile more and frown a 
lot less! Matt, Just  one man's observation of you since I have known you, 
and want you to try and understand that none of us need negativity in our 
lives unnecessarily. Please try and change your attitude not just for 
yourself, but for all that is around and in contact with you! Your friend in 
the cause, Kirk Harmon

I agree , a positive attitude always helps. One may not like a situation but
the only thing you have control over is the way you react to it.

You can take a brown car right out lobby entrance for $5 for everyone in car
or ask a friend  who drives to take you to Publix.

You can hook up with member or friend and get around together. You have two
years to work on solutions. A positive attitude helps, too.
