Do you know what really hurts

[AJC]

I wish I had hours of time to burn on the computer......but as the saying goes be careful what you wish for....

The rest of this is Off topic and addressed to jpinard--
I dont normally respond to personal issues- Especially here in this forum - but for some reason I feel compelled in this case....(I am sure you have heard it all before.. but...)

IMO- Being disabled doesnt make you worthless.....No matter how disabled you are, the only worthless people are the ones that deliberately hurt others in the extreme. Several recent dictators come to mind...;-)

If you feel like a zero here is an idea
You mentioned your former career, reach out to others with the same disability, teach them about computers, show them PC games, etc...
There are members of my family that are disabled - from my extended families deafness to my wife and my mothers MS.

I feel that it is important that you do your best to get by, Keep your spirits up and enjoy the time you have today doing whatever it is you like and can still physically do, push yourself...and recognize life is far to short to allow yourself to feel worthless, its a waste of your energy.

take care,

AJC
