As this blog is all about Relationships, I'm sure some of you will not be surprised about this particular blog piece. I have received many emails from readers who also know of my other websites and life work, wanting to know why I've not posted on this blog for some time. The answer is simple. As mentioned in my last posting, I was traveling all over the States for my book tour, and since my return to Paris have had two deaths of close relatives, and with working, and constantly producing articles for ezines, and radio interviews etc. I've barely had time to sleep much less write a blog.
That being said, a blog is a very important tool in the world today, and it doesn't matter whether you blog for business, blog for romance, and or blog for attention, blogging is the life stream of the Internet.
I must admit, that I've grown close to many of my readers, because a great many of you take the time to sit in on my Teleseminar classes, write me emails, or you've read my http://www.myspace.com/ronedebeauvoir page, or you know of several other communication tools I use out there on the Great Big Boy Web. (Internet) If you have, you no doubt have come to know me as a person who enjoys to give, and in fact seek out those for whom I can help. Because of this I have a little saying that I share with people and it goes like this: "Satan seeks whom he may devour, I seek whom I may Bless!"
Most of us get up out of bed with out a care in the world, while others grumble and complaint. I really strive to get up each morning praising God first and foremost for my good and perfect health. Here lately I've returned to this attitude of praise because of the many wonderful things happening in my life. One day recently, I had a day of feeling sorry for myself as we all do sometimes. One day I complained about menopause, hot flashes, and the lack of dates I had for the month. I often volunteer for various charities that I believe in while providing what I call a service of love. Recently, while complaining to God about hot flashes, in walks the man you see on your right of the picture. Very good looking man and quite pleasant to speak with I might add. I knew of his face as I would see him once a month for a meeting he attends for parachute regiment whom served in World War II. It's funny but every month when I would see this gentleman, I never would have guessed and or believed what his life presently endures.
We see people sometimes everyday or on a regular basis not knowing the burdens they may be facing. When he came to the office, he shared a story to me and the secretary of this office where I volunteer my services, of the young man you see on the left side of this photo. The young man is his son who is now about 33 three years old. I'm sure you would agree he is a very good looking young man. What his father told us brought tears to my eyes instantly. He stated in 2002 his son Serge was driving his motorcycle in Paris and was in a serious accident. The results was the fine young man you see before unable to move his body from neck down
I immediately began asking questions, such as "What's his attitude like these days?" "Does he ever think of committing suicide?" "Is he sad and depressed?" I had a flood of questions. While his father patiently replied to each of my questions, he then began to share why he came to meet with my friend Janet and myself. He went on to tell us of the marvelous work that his son is doing. "Work!" I shouted..what work? How can he work I asked? Then I learned in that moment the real power of developing a peace and a relationship with ones self. In fact when you have peace within, this in and of itself is a relationship.
Would you believe Serge operates a Wine Tasting business? Can you believe that he works a computer with just the blinking of his eyes? And would you also believe on 31 May 2007 in Paris France Serge is going to have a wine tasting event? Suddenly my hot flashes went away, I was privately ashamed for complaining and immediately offered to help with fundraising opportunities for this young man. While I'm sure this may be longer than unusual for my blogs, this one simply could not be helped. On the 31 May 2007 there is a special fundraising event to benefit Serge and to support his efforts in his life. He is indeed an inspiration and I'm told received great inspiration himself from Christoper Reeves before he passed on, who was another great inspiration to us all.
Right now you have a wonderful opportunity to bless Serge with your support by contributing to his efforts. I'm sure you would agree, most people would have completely given up if they were in his shoes. But as Serge Maloubier has developed a relationship with himself, and a peace no doubt with God, he is indeed a Great inspiration to people like you and me whom have activity in all parts f our bodies. To learn more about Serge and how to support him on an on going basis, I encourage you to check out his website at http://vinosenso.com
Don't worry if you don't speak French! His father speaks perfect English ad he would be most proud and pleased to hear from you. In closing remember, the next time you get out of bed, stand on your feet and stretch your body with complete freedom, think about my friend Serge. Why? Because in a way that most people cannot understand Serge Maloubier has complete control over his life and his body and it's right in front of your eyes...He didn't QUIT!
