ANOTHER OF MY HEROES

This is Paul. He is an incredible guy. He faces life with courage and strength. He helps others to laugh. Paul is 14. He is a karate student who has competed in national events. And he never intentionally hurts anyone outside of that competition. If you want a nice animal, just let Paul hang out with your pet. He is so mellow that his cats and dogs are always the friendliest on the block. Need someone to care? Just let Paul know that you are having problems. Need friendship? Now you are talking Paul's language. The only times he has had real trouble at school have been because he was defending a friend -- usually from a bully. I like Paul. I like to hang out with him, laugh with him & hear his thoughts.

Wow. If only I was younger. Really, Paul is a speical kid. Very kind, loving, RESPECTFUL, and fun. He's kinda cute too, just don't tell him I said so, he may get embarrassed.

I have always wanted a guy like him in my life, but it has taken me a long time to realise that I have one right across the street from me (for those who dont know, Paul is my neighbor). I have never really seen Paul in that light before because I have never really taken the time to get to know him or spent any amount of time with him. Now, I regret my not being a better friend to him.

I've known Paul for a long, long time. He's definitely one of my favorite guys. He's so awesome because he is just him...with a great sense of humor, amazing strength, even more amazing gentleness, a wonderful sense of the man's position of protector and guide. Paul, you're fabulous!
