I feel like he is a different species than me, and that disappoints me. However, it is nice to at least watch someone else, who appears to deserve it, enjoy their life despite the worst of circumstances. Divorced

"That disappoints me".....this is where you show your disrespect of yourself.... So instead of "WATCHING" him, why do you not try to emulate him??? Who says you can't have that outlook on life?? Who says YOU can't enjoy your life DESPITE your W's A??? not2fun ps...I watched his lecture as well, and yes he had MANY lessons to teach us all.....

I've never been that type of person, although I wish I was. If I could throw a switch and make it so, I would. I'm just hard-wired a different way. Divorced

For anyone who is interested, you can watch his "last lecture" on YouTube (highly recommended).
