Someone sent this in.
If anyone knows that authors please let me know.

Two men, looking out from behind bars.
One saw mud.
One saw stars

this is great!!!!
For me this means that we are all heading in a direction.
We may not be in the most desirable place right now but if you have the right attitude you will eventually go in the right direction.
I guess also that means that, decide the way you want to feel and be and start looking in that direction.
It doesn't take a lot of effort.....just start looking in that direction.

Over the years at work I've helped all kinds of ex-offenders find work which is not an easy job. Someone with a criminal record of any kind has a very hard time finding work, especially in a recession. Employers see someone with something on a police record and immediately move on to the next candidate. Instead of joining society, the ex-offender becomes discouraged and returns to the behavior that lead to trouble in the first place. Some employers believe in second chances ant will look beyond what the person has done in the past to what they could do in the future. My work requires I be non-judgemental and help everyone as best I can. Taking the time to listen to a person's story about decisions they have made and then helping them find work is both enlightening and rewarding. I try to keep it positive and upbeat and people respond well. I had a guy, Lorenzo, say to me "Paul, there is enough love in your heart for everyone." I cannot think of a better complement and when I find myself being judgemental or doubting the goodness that exists in all of us, I do my best to live up to what Lorenzo told me.

If you know someone with a criminal record looking for work, they can go to www.getajobwithacriminalrecord.com for free information.

I am physically handicapped (Arthrogryposis) and have spent my life overcoming barriers of one form or another. I have come to believe that the biggest barriers are in our own HEAD. Starting off in a school for handicapped children, my parents realized that I was not going to get educated there and tossed me into the regular public schools. The change was pretty smooth and once my fellow students got used to having me around, I was just another student. As a young person, I wanted to drive a car but few around me thought I could. Fortunately, my parents encouraged me to be as independent as possible and I have been driving safely now for more than 20 years. I quickly ruled out going into the military, playing in the NFL or NBA as career paths. To be successful in life, I knew I had to educate myself. Like many, I started off at community college and went on to earn a Bachelor’s Degree in English. After college, getting a job was no easy matter. I feel I faced a lot of discrimination. Eventually, I did find an employer who took a chance on me. With gainful employment, I was able to move out on my own and learned to live independently. I have made many international friends and have traveled extensively. Knowing I was handicapped I still received invitations from friends to experience their culture. One such trip was to Bulgaria. I thought Bulgaria? Why not? However, it had to be a solo trip. Thirteen hours of travel to a former east block country and what is the first thing I hear getting off the plane- a Madonna song in English! I’ll never forget that and realizing what a small similar world it really is. My friends met me at the airport and we spent the next two weeks tooling all over the country in their car we named “The Yellow Submarine.” We had a fantastic time! A few years later I received an email from an old family friend living in Vietnam asking how I would feel about a southeastern Asian vacation. A few weeks later I Arrived in Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City. I learned a lot more about barriers in Vietnam. It is not what we would call “handicapped accessible”. The people however made the difference. Whatever help I needed bystanders gave me, and many times they did so without even being asked. I liked Vietnam so much I went again two years later and met my wife to be, Thu. We have been married almost a year and a half as of this writing and life is good!

Presently, I’m finishing a Master’s Degree in Conflict Resolution at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I have taught English as a Second language and adult computer literacy (as a volunteer) through the library as well as on my own. Helping people find work is another major interest of mine and I’ve had the good fortune to be invited to various organizations to speak about this. Helping as many as possible benefit from what I’ve learned is my main goal in life.

Did you Know?

2010-01-18T10:50:00.001-08:00

Did you know that it has been studied and documented that people with personality disorders, in some cases can completely change physical aspects of their bodies.

Their eye color can change from one color to another....from blue to brown!!!
If their bodies have a disorder, say diabetes, when they change into their other personality, their body shows no signs of the disease.

That is amazing!!!
In other words, their belief in which they know they are is so strong that their body has no choice but to change with the belief.

If that is not evidence enough of the power of the mind over all things in our lives, I don’t know what is.

Makes you wonder about the possibilities a bit doesn’t it!!!!!!
Further evidence that everything’s possible
