I have been talking to this guy who has everything he could ever want. He started when he was 14 from scratch and now has a business that is well known and brings in loads of money. He is a hero to me personally. I look at his dedication for web design and business and I see that he came from nothing, and is something now. I want to give him a thanks.

He has taught me a lot, and we've only been talking for few days now. I'm sure a few of you know who I'm talking about...or maybe all of you. I just cant get over his dedication. A heck of a lot of people would quit after what hes been through, and done...but he didn't and now he has it all. Wow!

I am 15 and am working as hard as I can to learn all I can, hopefully to be some what as good as HE is. I have dedication and I can do anything if I set my mind to it. I'm trying/learning to be the best web developer/coder/flash expert/technician there has ever been. I know I can do it; I have no idea how but I will find a way. I'm glad to be here at TWS, and hope to learn much from everyone!
