He's dared to go against conventional wisdom, studying bears by befriending them rather than by darting and sedating them. He's faced a lot of adversity in the past year but has not wavered in his beliefs and actions.<br /><br />A beautiful post!KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-47656362370463470142013-11-06T16:22:59.762-05:002013-11-06T16:22:59.762-05:00My Mother always inspired me, wish she was still w...My Mother always inspired me, wish she was still with me. sparky136 on Ravelrysparky136https://www.blogger.com/profile/00336851749882623160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-20274391106042723292013-11-06T15:30:08.095-05:002013-11-06T15:30:08.095-05:00I had not heard about Dr. Hamlin's work until ...I had not heard about Dr. Hamlin's work until I read this post.

The person who inspires me is actually my own husband. He is wise, kind and humble and God has given him a heart for the Eastern Europeans, for whom he is often a surrogate Father. They have left their families in Hungary and Poland and life is hard for them. Most of all, he 'trusts in the lord with all his heart and leans not unto his own understanding'Housewife59https://www.blogger.com/profile/12485051347795187632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204374863752308898.post-56104580211962733172013-11-06T01:55:40.395-05:002013-11-06T01:55:40.395-05:00My mother inspires me, and that is who I would giv...My mother inspires me, and that is who I would give this scarf to should my number be drawn.
