For out of a great tragedy He brought two of His own close together in a very special way; but is it not because of our own lack of understanding that makes it seem so mysterious???

It's a driven spirit. It's a calling. It's a feeling. As long as we're able to do it...we will. I applaud your guys' strength through this. I once had a friend who actually went thru a very similar thing...wrecking on a major highway in a brutal storm...tho he was pushing it at near 100...Months later, he too got up and got back on. Like I said. It's a spirit. It has nothing to do with intelligence or whatever other kind of thing you can throw in. You're kinda born to do it or you're not...Peace...and Ride On!
