It takes enormous courage to deal with traumatic injury or other assaults on your physical existence.

Here is the most encouraging story of a man who turned the loss of his limbs after climbing into a Blizzard into a life changer for himself and others afflicted with amputation.  We are not just talking adjustment, we are seeing defiance of despair and constructive ways of handling traumatic change.  I was beyond impressed reading this story:

And since he was stricken during a blizzard I dug out some snow photos, their romantic appearance hiding the dangers associated with true winter. Give me rain any time!
