Hi guys, as some of you may be aware that I refer to my bouts with the tremours of PD as Mr Wobbly....I get really good days when he only makes a brief appearance and others he can be a king sized pain in the butt.
I'm often aware of strange looks people give me when I'm out and about and I just ignore them, some surprise me giving me a nice warm knowing smile which is nice but very rare in todays society....in the UK anyway.
What really upset me recently was seeing Mohammed Ali in Manchester, I've admired him from childhood as have many around the world.....this guy is an awesome inspiration with his strength of mind and spirit and such positivity it takes my breath away. So I think it will do us all good to take a leaf out of his book.
It breaks your heart to see someone who was such a fine athlete in such great shape and to see him now.....they were tears in my Muesli this morning I can tell you.....(rambling away here!! LOL)
Thanks for listening Dirk !!;O))

I love Mohammed Ali also. He reminds me to always consider the blessings in your life. I may not be able to do certain things because of my mental health issues but I have to constantly remind myself of the blessings I have so I don't bitch to much or feel sorry for myself. And you have taught me that to. People will judge others because they are ignorant and don't know. I just try and over look people like that.
