Defeat is not an OPTION !!!
In April 2009 I stepped into the beginning of my future.
That was the month that I started Hawaii Vet 2 Vet Inc, (a Hawaii State Non-Profit Organization).
While this work started as a result of me having come through some situations in life that blindside me as I did not plan on ever being homeless or getting divorced.., well I have experienced both.
Add to that a reduction in how I am viewed by some because they have never met this Mike before defeat is close by and is not an option !!!
Since the creation of Hawaii Vet 2 Vet the Mike that was selfish, self seeking and not able to see that he was the problem or a contributing factor to the problems has found Hawaii Vet 2 Vet to be his cross to bear.
So as I have slowly moved forward tying to follow the voice of my Higher Power / God of my Understanding I discovered that many will appear as helpers of the cause / creation of a Hawaii Vet 2 Vet that will help others as long as they can get something out of Hawaii Vet 2 Vet not to add to Hawaii Vet 2 Vet.
Now I am not saying that people should work for free (volunteer) always and forever, what I am saying is this..,
Defeat is not an Option !!!
Hawaii Vet 2 Vet is alive and will continue in spite of all the stuff people have taken or have gotten away with so that they can look good.
Finally I thank the people who have supported Hawaii Vet 2 Vet Inc over the last 7 years because you have inspired me and given me hope for the future.
And for you who have taken from this work or pretended that you want to help this work so that you could look better while you ripped me (us) off I say..,
God bless you and hope that you are happy with yourself.
Until next time "Thank you for your support because..,
Defeat s not an OPTION.
