Fearless In Devotion | WREXHAM AFC podcast @fearlessidzine

Remember when everyone said Paul Mullin was moving to #WxmAFC for the ££ despite him saying it was to be nearer his family? Anyone who still doubted that will definitely think differently when they see him on S2 Ep 3 of #wrexhamfx . Eyes welled up, his focus solely on family. ♥️

I absolutely love this story........ It made me cry. "An 87 Year Old College Student Named Rose The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being. She said, “Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze. “Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids…” “No seriously,” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me. After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake. We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up. At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I’ll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the podium. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her three by five cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “I’m sorry I’m so jittery. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I’ll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what I know.” As we laughed she cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. 1) You have to laugh and find humor every day. 2) You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it! 3) There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old. If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change. 4) Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.” She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live them out in our daily lives. At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’s never too late to be all you can possibly be. When you finish reading this, please send this peaceful word of advice to your friends and family, they’ll really enjoy it! These words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE. REMEMBER, GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL. We make a Living by what we get, We make a Life by what we give."

This is something we all need to get good at. Our democracy depends on us being able to talk to one another, be respectful of one another, and learn how to converse without shaming, demeaning, or attacking. @Theholisticpsyc

There’s something special about someone who can talk about tense topics without needing to be right. They know there are multiple realities and perspectives. You feel safe fully expressing around them because their goal isn’t to prove you wrong.

Today, on Nelson Mandela Day, may we celebrate the life and legacy of this wonderful man. May we follow his example when it comes to human rights and forgiveness. Here I am, with my mother, meeting Nelson Mandela, many years ago when we traveled to South Africa for @specialolympics. He spoke of the power of the individual, the power of acceptance, the power of forgiveness, and the power of compassion. I fondly look back on these lessons from him, and hope we can all carry these truths forward. I hope in his honor and his spirit, we can all treat each other with compassion, respect, acceptance, and forgiveness, today and every day. That we can work towards a more loving and understanding society. #NelsonMandelaDay
