Gratitude

My Newsletter last month was about asking for help. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not a sign of weakness. I have received a lot of help along my healing path to success.

Throughout my journey I have been overcome with gratitude. I am so grateful towards everyone who has helped me, and continues to help me, along my road to recovery. I have realized how much love has contributed, and has always been there for me. The more present I have been able to be in my life has enabled me to let the love in to help and guide me.

It was not my choice in the beginning, but as the years have passed, I have been able to create more space in my life, more time to just be, and be present with myself. As I sit and reflect, I am struck by the amount of love that has constantly surrounded me. I feel that the love and strength that lies within can be seen through my service, and giving to others. I love to give of myself to someone, or to many people with love, humility, devotion and determination. This has been my mantra.

Simple acts of service can be transformed into something purposeful and influential. As John F. Kennedy said,

“One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.”

I have realized that I want to move forward in my life with hope, faith, conviction, and purpose.

I am so excited, and wanted to tell my readers that I am getting married in three weeks. I have been lucky enough to be able to share my life with someone who also has a desire to help and make a difference.

Jennifer Field

At age 17, Jennifer had her sights set on the Olympics when it all came crashing down following a near fatal car accident that left her comatose and brain damaged.

Unable to walk, talk, or eat on her own, over the next ten years Jennifer battled physical, mental and emotional obstacles to regain her physical independence, graduate college and become a national speaker.

Readers and audiences are moved by her courageous journey for physical independence and are inspired by her story and life lessons.

Determined and unwilling to give up, Jennifer ignored her doctor's prognosis and with the help of her loving and dedicated Mother, Joanne Field, combed the globe in search of treatments and therapies that would help her regain her life.

She embraced the expression “never say never,” and her readers will too.
