Bob,

Thanks for speaking up about a disease that most people try to hide because it is 'wrong.' Talking about HIV and AIDS and how living with the illness is, opened my eyes even more. I had met you before but every time you talk about it, it makes me cry. I know the medicine "cocktails" make you a little sick sometimes, but keep your head up and be strong. Thanks!

Much Love,
Janice A.

p.s. There is always calm after a storm.
Stay strong Pirate.

Bob,

Your courage and conviction to spread HIV awareness and messages about living have inspired and motivated me to continue my commitment to working with HIV.

...................................................

Unfortunately, life does not come with a money-back guarantee. Going after what we want, especially if we're up against established interests, is likely to demand the commitment of our best energies -- with no certainty of getting it.

Oddly enough, some of the happiest people we are ever likely to meet are those who devote their lives to seemingly hopeless causes. For such people, daring a lot can mean staking their lives on a belief. The outcomes are bound to be small in proportion: failure, perhaps. At best, limited achievement.

But none of this seems to matter. In fact, a happy person with a cause seems to have totally let go of the outcome. The joy is in the struggle, in the process. They learn so much; and by living for something outside themselves, their own small problems miraculously fall into line.

Achievement is risky, but dedication is wonderfully liberating.

May you find some peace in the holiday season and great pride in all you do.

With thanks,
Annie in NH
