It's hard and and our hearts go out -- we pray for but I do think this Steve if you get up and you found something to be grateful for.

You feeling good job if you have your health if you have your fame if you have some -- I believe how you start to -- determines.

Do you know how the -- going together.

And so with any luck there's certainly agree with us always we don't you always sort of happy and fun and you do that I think it's very important I think.

You know if you can just have the right perspective and not get bitter lot of people get discouraged it's never gonna change that -- and what do you that you also nobody but possibly when you're an upbeat moving -- open to opportunity opportunity tends to come to you and you can't quantify or.
