Hi Willena,

I’m sorry that I didn’t respond to this comment earlier, but to tell you the truth, this is the first time I saw it.

I was saddened to hear that you lost your oldest son in a car accident. I can’t imagine how difficult it must have been to lose a child no matter what impact they have had on this world. As you mentioned, “James was always so much fun, no matter who he was with.” and that is one of the best impacts anyone can have on the world.

As Jim Rohn had said, “It is better to live in a tent on a beach with the person you love, rather than living in a mansion all alone.” And James wasn’t alone and it sounds like he was loved by everyone he came in contact with.

Please accept our condolences for your families loss,
Dave and (Dawn)

I came to your blog today to see this “random post.” The video no longer works, but I get the gist of it from your post.

I know this isn’t supposed to be about me, but I’d like to share something with you…

You posted this on Dec. 11, 2009, the day our family got together for a special celebration. Ian, me and our 7 children, all together for a meal in our home, for the first time in some months. We had a warm, wonderful, loving time that evening. Unbeknownst to us, it would also be the last time we would ever be together. The following evening we lost our oldest son James in a vehicle accident.

James… gone… exactly one week after Jim Rohn.

I remember the day Jim Rohn died too, because it was another special day for our family. We joined another family and took 3 vehicles to the city for an afternoon and evening of fun. James took our youngest and their youngest to McDonalds for supper and a movie and then took them home, while the rest of us attended another event. It was an evening never to be forgotten by the two little boys, because James was always so much fun, no matter who he was with.

We miss James so much. He never made the impact on the world that Jim Rohn did… but he left a huge gap in the world of everyone who knew him. From the elderly to the smallest child, he was loved.

Thanks for letting me share.

What great questions! The “Why” suggests that we all try to do as little as possible, and he’s probably right. The better question — “Why not?” turns all that around, and opens possibilities instead of locking us into things we “have to” do.

“Why not me?” I’ve been saying that ever since getting into internet marketing! If others can do it, why not me? The “now” question is a bit more difficult. But even if things don’t happen quickly, and learning comes slowly, at least we can make a start in the “now.” And after all, the journey is important, too.

Thanks for sharing his message.
