I had the great honor and distinct pleasure while at my weekly Rotary Club meeting on Tuesday of hearing a truly amazing man, motivational speaker Jerry Traylor.

Here's a guy born with cerebral palsy who was LOVED and as a result, always tried to do more than what anyone felt he might be capable of. He has participated in a number of full-length marathons, and even jogged all the way from the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco to theBrooklyn Bridge in New York to raise awareness.

Next time you're feeling down on yourself and think you "can't" perhaps consider reading Jerry's story and reminding yourself that CAN'T is for quitters. CAN is for anyone willing to try.

His book, Live CAREfully, is also available at his Web site... I bought three copies to give as high school graduation gifts! (Jerry's suggestion - the man's not shy with asking for the order.)
