Tuesday, July 15, 2008 | An Inspiring story

As I often do i have an opportunity to go thru my many pictures and memorabilia from my days as a professional wrestler. Today was such a day, I looked back at posters, programs, ticket stubs, and more and looked back at almost twenty years of living my dream. It was 1977 when I told my dad I wanted to be a professional wrestler and he laughed at me. I finally got to live that dream in the late eighties and have been doing in ever since except twice when I tried to retire, once when I broke my neck, the other when wrestling broke my heart.

 

I have made many friends, met many famous people. I have had a blast. And I am still doing it, while I do not actively wrestle I still am active promoting shows, producing shows, and doing whatever I can.

 

I do not regret one minute of the past several years entertaining crowds, I do not regret much in my life. I did what I wanted, what I could, I dreamed big, lived big, and tried not to make to many mistakes.

 

I never accepted the words " can't " and " no:" and " impossible " I always knew I could do whatever I wanted to do, if I just tried hard enough.

 

I have a long road ahead of me and many dreams to dream. I hope the next twenty years are as exciting and as fulfilling as the last twenty.
