What an inspirational Man!!!

Homerbcool · 03-11-2005, 06:49 AM

My wife and I watched primetime live last night and were absolutely 100% awestruck and inspired by a story on Ronan Tynan, (visit his Web site at http://www.ronantynan.net)....

I, for one had never heard of him, but his story is amazing, to watch and hear him talk was life changing....born with two deformed legs, now amputated, Ronan did not let that stop him and in his short 44 years on this planet, he has managed to become a doctor, a world class athlete and a world class tenor.....did anyone else see this show....

He really knows how to live - like everyday is his last.

It certainly helped me re-dsicover that internal feeling I once had...nothing can stop you once you have put yuor whole being into it.....if someone says you can't, the hell with them go out and get it....what an amazing human being. On the show last night he was full of vim and vigar, would not acknowledge the words can't, does not acknowledge negatvity.....I hope that more people on this site check out his story.

I watched, too. I almost didn't because I sometimes get depressed watching how some people overcome such obstacles, and I have trouble getting out of bed.
They (all three stories) were so helpful though. I really was uplifted.

Now let's see if that can translate into positive action, eh?

I akreayd have, I ahve been having an awful time getting into my work, I work fomr hom, but have sales territory I manage and it has not been done to the best of my abilities, but htis morning out of bed at 7, showered, dressed and right at it...in fact my brother (who is also my boss) asked me if I pissed the bed this morning I was at so early...

If Ronan can do, then why can't we....there is no reason..no need to answer....

I wonder if we can get a copy of the show for those of us on this site could watch it...

the sad aprt was both his parents really did not get to see the fruits of his hard efforts.

Gotta agree with you thereHomer. Everytime you think he's great for doing suchandsuch, he would come out with another one - like going to medical school. Just goes to show you what influence parents can have. But, even then, he had the good sense to decide he could do something and just not question it and get down to work.

And Dave, I thought I was the only one who thought something so stupid (not that I'm calling you stupid) as why watch something inspirational when I am challenged to navigate the day?

Really, seeing what that guy did, it's not easy to say no to doing everything you can to make a great life that you won't regret. Most of the hours of the day.

that WAS a wonderful show!!! the segment about Ronan was GREAT!!! and then did you see the segment at the end about the woman with autism??!?!??!
That was AMAZING!!! how she learned from the animals and was able to develop things that aided the animals as well as in the long term finding ways to help herself and kids with autism!!!

It would be great to have that tape to show us all what we are truly capable of...it would definetly help those who are on the downswing of this hellish trip...

It changed my complete ooutlook...I am going out this week end to buy Ronan's CD....just listening to it will make me dig deeper, go farther, not give up etc....in fact he is now my computer wall paper for inspiration.....
