I think he was speaking about most people, but not about Lisa Ann, who has gone through tons of trials and loads of tribulations - that are seemingly NEVER ending. I think if I possessed a flower petal for every time she was near death, or a leaf for every time she had a surgery, or a speck of dirt for every time she had a fall, or a drop of rain for every time she wailed in agonizing pain, I would have the most beautiful flower garden ever imaginable. Lisa Ann would be the brightest, most colorful flower in that garden. Recall how heavy raindrops fall upon flower petals, weighing some of them down, knocking some of them off, and crushing some of them beyond recognition; and how gardeners fret over the thought of having no flowers remaining after the deluge. But when the storm ends and the sun peeks out, there are a few flowers in full bloom - despite the flogging from Mother Nature. THAT'S LISA ANN!!! Breakable, yet indestructible! Worn down, yet resilient! Whenever I begin to complain about a physical ailment or an emotional setback, I shut my mouth, and think of Lisa Ann and everything she has withstood, and I thank God! Because I know that whatever I am going through, truly pales in comparison to what she has gone and is going through. This book is but a moment in her life, a moment that will haunt her memories and tug at her dreams forever. Upon finishing, you will have met only a fraction of the woman whose life is strewn throughout these pages, a woman who will always be an inspiration."view less
