What Makes us who we are?

Can you remember where you were 37 years ago.? Having a map helps!, our experiences during our lives makes us who we are today, and shapes us for our future. Significant events have significant impacts on how we develop, grow and react to life events and people that we meet and cross paths with as we travel through our life journey. 37 years ago I was here (finger pointing) with a group of men many 20-21 years of age tasked to do our job. We did. The days ahead placed us in situations that tested our endurance, survival skills, battle skills, and all aspects of emotion. 37 years ago we where about to commence the epic YOMP, carrying weapons and loads beyond the norm!!

In our journey through life, we will always come across highs and lows, positive and negatives. It is our experiences that we have gained help us overcome a negative to make a positive and develop a positive into something that we can benefit from fully.

Some find the challenges to much, what we also must understand is that it is not one person that stands alone and is successful, it will always take a team, and when in times of need and trouble there will always be someone who is able to assist you, advise you and guide you to the positive side. My personal goal and statement is 'MAKING THE DIFFERENCE' - we can all do this in our own way.

Today I went for my regular exercise- keeping fit and healthy is one aspect embedded in my life from my past.

We will remember them.
