AAS Skate Team. The AAS Skate Team is the team of athletes with physical disabilities that represents Adaptive Action Sports.
So, instead of being a team of athletes that represents a city or a company, the skate team represents a socially beneficial non-profit organization. We also represent the ideal that, with the proper motivation and support, a person with physical disabilities can still pursue their passion for action sports. We ride to inspire and to be inspired.

Had a thought while driving home and I wanted to share it. Hope you don’t mind…
When we truly let go of past hurts, hang-ups and disappointments and choose to live in the moment, in the now, in the PRESENT, life truly can be a GIFT.
Hope you liked this one. :)

Have a good week, or try to! You *ARE* Loved :) ♥ Joanne ♥
(Sorry this isn't personalized to every individual, I'm sending this out to EVERYONE on the site) While I'm in the process of doing some 'friend cleaning' see blog, I thought it might be a good time to ask those of you who *want* to be here to subscribe to my blog if you haven't already. Not at all necessary to not being deleted, Just thought I might as well get it all done at once, since the process is going to take some time. It may also be a good time for those who don't really support the PTSD cause and/or don't want to see pictures or comments like this to just go ahead and delete, cuz I can't run this site afraid of who I can send what comments to. I mean if you want to delete the comment, but keep me/the site/the cause, that's fine. I just want it to be abundantly clear, if it isn't already, this is and will remain an MJ judgment/hate free site. You don't have to like him....just keep the hate elsewhere. Thanks, I appreciate your understanding and patience during this transitional time. http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.subscribe&friendId=143717533&action=subscribe
Hello, my friend. Another Tankism to brighten your week. Hope it helps :)
Look at life from the perspective of what you have NOW, what you are grateful for NOW. If you continue to look into the PAST as to what you have lost, when you open your PRESENT, you will not like what you get. However, by focusing firmly on where you are directing your FUTURE by thinking on those things which are good and pure and what you do want to happen, as you unfold your PRESENT, you will find the gift that you know you really want. And, it really is that simple. As a wise person once said: If you believe you can't, you're rightif yet if you believe you CAN, you're right. What do you believe? :)
The trick is to stay focused on what you want to happen and let go of what you do not... cuz if you keep seeing things as they are, convincing yourself that you "have to" because that's reality, then it will always be your reality. want to change? it's as simple as changing the who, what, how, why and when of what you look at and FOCUS on... DAILY :)
Tankism #25 Have a great week :) PS: see if you can "see" the picture below. It's pretty cool...
Failure is the best part of success. They are like yin and yang; you can’t have one without the other. So learn to celebrate your failures. Truly successful people even say they are successful because they have failed more than anyone they know. They keep trying and each time it doesn’t work, it’s just a learning experience. So, go out there, Fail, Learn, Succeed. Fail, Learn, Succeed. Say it with me now, Fail. Learn.. Succeed!!!
Put it this way, you CANNOT get hung up on when something doesn’t go your way. If you stay fixated on the failure, then you cut off the other two steps: Learn and Succeed. Fight the temptation to dwell on the failure with EVERYTHING you’ve got. Get excited about failing! Then Learn, Then Succeed!!!
Get Inspired, what are you waiting on? Every minute that you waste on this planet focused on what your RIGHTS are as opposed to what your RESPONSIBILITIES are is a golden opportunity that has passed you by. An opportunity to take your life into your own hands and change your world for the better. When you do that, the byproduct is a better world overall. And, this world desperately needs YOU to show up.
Are you a glass half empty or glass half full type of person?
When life presents you with “experiences”, do you see them as problems that you can do nothing about or moves in a game and your job is to find the solution so you can “win the game?”
Have you failed in life or merely learned ways how not to do something on your way to achieving the life you know you deserve?
Do you live in a hostile world or a world that’s beautiful and full of possibilities?
Are you a know-it-all adult that no one can tell anything to, the world sucks and that’s just the way it is, or do you have child-like faith and can see things like children see them?
This week, let the kid in you back out. Laugh more…Appreciate more…Be thankful more…Help more…BE MORE…You were meant to be abundant, so go out there and start your treasure hunt :-)
Your mind is like a garden and your thoughts are like grass, beautiful smelling flowers and weeds… If you want grass to grow, you need to “plant it,” water it and take care of it. If you want beautiful smelling flowers, you need to plant “beautiful smelling flowers,” water them and take care of them. Whatever you want in your garden, you need to plant it, water it, take care of it. Now, sometimes your garden will have weeds and you need to pull them out. The thing about weeds… they grow automatically, rather you plan them or not. What are you planting?
Keep Moving Forward... I don't care what life throws at you, Keep Moving Forward... When it seems like you can't take another step, Keep Moving Forward... When you've tried and tried and tried and fallen and fallen and fallen Keep Moving Forward... I don't care what you have to do in order to do it, you have to Keep Moving Forward... Even when you can't see what's in front of you, Keep Moving F... :-)
