ARE YOU DEPRESSED???

[lifesaride]

I'm not a baseball fan, but I gotta tell ya,  I was looking at the forum, and a lot of moods were saying something about depression. Well it's Saturday night and that was the hardest night usually. See that was the night me and my ex wife spent time together. Ya know workin 2 jobs a piece takes a toll. Anyway I would get missing our time together and criple myself with pills on saturday. Now 3 months oxy free, Saturdays are still hard. I keep myself busy and theres always something to work on in this old house.  I came across a story of a young man and I wanted to share it with everyone, because evryone can always use a lil hope. Like I stated I'm not a baseball fan, but after this story I'm definately a JOSH HAMILTON fan. It's kinda a long article so grab a cup of coffee and a couple tissues , (your gonna need them),http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2926447.... Enjoy, Teddy

I just read the article on Josh....I had no idea of his past.The only thing I always found alittle odd was all the tatoos on him.....now they make alot of sense to me! My twins,that are 28 and Texas Fans have never mentioned this to me,how strange.I guess they thought I knew!! I love watching Texas play and still don't know how this slipped past me! Thank you for the article....I am going to ask my sons if they knew this...I admire him more now than I did!! Of course I admire all of the Ranger's! Janice
