Bethaney Hamilton

In 2003 Bethany Hamilton lost her arm via a shark attack while surfing. Her board was bitten as well. She is an inspiration to me. At work I pass by an ad poster with Bethany on it. The caption reads: "Give Up? Not me!" The photo shows a picture of Bethany smiling through the braces on her teeth. She is in a bikini and is holding her old surfboard. Whenever I pass it, I become more determined, more energized, and no "pity parties" for me. Thanks to Olga, my sister. Olga Ali Catfish who mentioned "pity pot" to me today via the telephone. Not sure if we have the same provider. Where have you gone A.T.& T? A nation turns its lonely eyes, er, voices to you
