When Dean Kamen was asked to create an artificial arm for the more than 1600 soldiers coming home from Iraq, he said, “Look, you’re nuts. It can’t be done.”
Dean Kamen looked at his resources, his time and efforts and knew he didn’t have time. He didn’t have the resources to help.
But he helped anyway.
And he created the impossible.
How many times has someone asked for your help and you’ve said or thought the same thing??
Dean Kamen is my inspiration this week to help the unhelpable, love the unlovable, and simply give my kindness when I feel like it ‘can’t be done.’

Couldn’t see the picture but the story was great. How cool would it be to give someone back a freaking limb?

I will take that idea to work with me today. Thanks!
As it is simply kind day let’s gloss over the Segway.
They always say that if you really need to get something done, give it to someone who’s always busy. He’s the rule they made that from. So are you.
Another concept I needed to hear today. Thanks, Claudia.
It’s always good to be reminded…I will make sure I say and do something for someone today.
You did yours by passing this along…thank you….
