FunBobby 0 #53 December 13, 2003 Being recognized as a "go to" guy.... consistently being called on for the tough assignments and taskers because the bosses and your comrades know that if has to get done well, you'll find a way to do it.

FunBobby 0 #54 December 13, 2003 Not to get preachy, but ..... Being here. I have lost brothers in arms in awful incidents; I myself have been in a bad one and there are those who wonder aloud how I am alive. I do sometimes. I firmly believe that there is a higher power that influences the world around us and events in our lives. PG. FunBobby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyangel2 2 #55 December 13, 2003 My sweet Michele. You are a very important influence in people's lifes. You make me feel important with our hour long conversations on the weekends. With everything that you have gone through, and are going through right now, it's okay to have a "down" day. But please remember how many people's lifes you have touched, and how important you are to them. I'm lucky to be included in the numbers that can say you are my friend.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #56 December 13, 2003 ... listening to tandem students tell me how great I am! Tracking away from a PFF student who has just completed all his freefall tasks. Closing reserves that others struggle with. Seeing my articles published in Canpara magazine. Completing the world's first Bungee-Cam! Having heroes like Bill Booth, Ted Strong, John Sherman, Sandy Reid and Spider Robinson take my questions seriously! Kayaking with my girlfriend! Swimming with my buddy Paul! Long bicycle rides and coming home to be greeted by two or three cats and a smiling girlfriend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

themitchyone 0 #58 December 13, 2003 I like when I get back the anonymous writing tutoring session evaluations from my tutees and they say "She was patient, nice, helpful, and I learned a lot" and when they say "She helped me with my grammars" . wipes a tear from her eye It makes me feel good."If the Bible has taught us nothing else, and it hasn't, it's that girls should stick to girl's sports such as hot oil wrestling and foxy boxing." - Homer Simpson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RevJim 0 #59 December 13, 2003 QuoteI help someone out somehow and don't tell anyone (including them, if possible) about it. That's kinda close to my answer too. I'm not sure it makes me feel important though. I don't do it for the ego trip or to feel important. I do it to see joy, happiness, smiles. I do it because it makes me feel good inside to help people who cannot help themselves. The only thing I ask of these people is to not mention who is or was helping them. I don't want the recognition, the spotlight, the limelight. I like the shadows, to remain hidden, to smile inside. Most understand, and follow my wishes. Some do not listen, and attempt to brag me up. This actually angers me. Wierd huh? I enjoy doing good for others, but when someone tries to recognize that, I flip out. Ya know, the more I think about it, the more I realize I'm just plain wierd. That's ok though, I enjoy being wierd in that way. It's your life, live it!

ACMESkydiver 0 #63 December 13, 2003 Great answers on here from everyone!! Some of mine: * When someone is considerate and corrects me privately without embarrassing me in front o' others * When someone answers my ???'s or replies to my comments * When I get an e-mail, a PM, or asked to chat * When a friend at the DZ says, "Jaye, you look like you could use a hug" * When I receive awards at work (hard to accept them, but I feel good anyhoo!) * When someone thanks me for being a veteran, or my bro, or hubby, or dad, or father-in-law (lots o' veterans in our family!) * When I find a solution for someone * When my kids climb all over me and mess up my hair. * Any time hubby, family, friends, or ANYONE says "I love ya, Jaye!" ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

skydiver51 0 #64 December 13, 2003 It use to be when I drove one of the Shriner vans taking kids to the hospital in Shereve Port, LA. Nothing can make you feel better seeing the kids outside being able to run for the first time after getting their braces and being able to do like other kids. Kinda wish I was still involved in the Shriners. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paige 0 #69 December 14, 2003 All the people that I know at the dz think your videos kick much ass. All of the OU kids that got videos loved them, as did I when you did my 1st tandem. I hear people talking about your videos (good things always) and I assume they would tell you these things. Incase they haven't, your videos always rock, esp. the year end stuff you did. THANKS! It always shows in your videos that you take great care and time in making them. Hard work pays off, people always notice when others take the time and effort.Tunnel Pink Mafia Delegate www.TunnelPinkMafia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
