Compassion can drive us to do amazing things and give us perspective.

You fall off the horse and you get back on.

To lose your everyday life of surfing and being creative on waves, enjoying the ocean - that's scary to me. It was essential to at least try surfing again and get out there and see how it went.

I'm just waiting for God to tell me what to do, but whatever it is, I want to be doing something like I am doing now-serving God and helping people.

You don't need easy, you just need possible.

Surfing for me is more than my lifestyle; it's my passion, my love and it's a part of me.

Like, with one arm I know I can surf, but competitive surfing can be really frustrating, and sometimes you don't do as well as you want to. It can be discouraging at times. But whenever I do get frustrated, I just focus on God.
