My story...

My name is John I'm a huge goofball. In my mind if you are not having fun doing whatever you are doing you need to change your perspective you have for whatever you're doing. I was injured July 9th 2007 It will forever be a day I'll forget for the rest of my life, but I will celebrate it every year so I never forget it. I truly do not believe that this happened to me I believe it happened for me. For me to become the father I was supposed to be and the son I should have always been.

I'm also happen to be a quadriplegic. Surprisingly, I'm 100% grateful to be in this condition. My life changed on July 9th, 2007—a day that will forever remain the best of my life. Prior to my accident, I was battling addiction. For over two years, I spiraled into a world of drugs and alcohol, losing my job, my home, and my zest for life along the way. Recognizing the need for change, I returned to my parents' property, supposedly to get sober. However, the sad truth was that I was high the night before.

The rest...

Merely changing my location didn't alter my destructive behavior. As they say, "Wherever you go, there you are." Real change requires a complete lifestyle overhaul.. I invite you to join me on my journey of self-discovery and self-compassion. I now live my life authentically, embracing each moment with the wisdom gained from my experiences. My life may not have gone how I planned to be honest I never had a plan. But I could not have made a better life choice than the one the universe made for me Made for me. Have a wonderful day, and remember, you are awesome..
