You never know who you are going to meet.

Earlier this week while I was exercising on my favourite piece of exercise equipment in my Mother's local park the horizontal ladder or stopping somewhere, it can be anywhere I don't mind who's watching like doing this

The idea is that it promotes other people to get more fitter than they are. Anyway this guy a little older than me says wow I'm too short to do that and he drums up a conversation with me. I tell him I've got Aspergers and he asks me what is #Aspergers Syndrome.

I tell him most of what #Aspie's have to deal with on a daily basis is unseen. It is how they feel, how they are unable to filter unwanted faults. But the more noticeable ones are poor table manners and social graces or more aptly put having an entity inside of your head that you are unable to control all of the time.

Anyway this time it was me to listen to an exceptionally motivating story. he told me about his nephew who appeared to be doing quite well , went off to University. Then something happened, some sort of mental breakdown, a complete inability to cope with his life and became like a hermit. He then tried to commit suicide a number of times and for his own protection was put into a Sanatorium for the next three years and put on medication he was told would have to take for the rest of his life or risk taking his life.

Now in his thirties his father did everything he could do to motivate his son without success took him to work everyday. After a couple of years a customer learned he could speak several languages, including dutch since Dutch was one of the five languages he spoke fluently. if he would translate a personal letter. His son did just that and then his father said to his son that this customer was asking if he would translate all his business letters with his Dutch customers. Then a school in his home town of Naples heard about his abilities and asked him if he would teach their pupils English and after a couple of years the school became well known for their pupils passing high grades in languages. The headmaster of the school was so thankful to this man that they awarded him a prize of a cruise. Then the most surprising thing of all occurred a teacher at the school took a liking to him. They were then 45 years old and within a short time got married.

The point of this story is that things happen in life. Your life may not pan out the way you had hoped it would but you should never give up on it no matter your circumstances.

This same man I had just met then embarked on a second story about his brother writing a book about their father who apparently during the second world war was a member of Churchill's most elite squad of soldiers who would go behind enemy lines and spy. Apparently Hitler was so enraged by these soldiers that he did the same in England. This man also told me that hi father died a year after he was born. So his father was a member of the predecessor of the #SAS, the #SpecialForces.

These men were so prone to secrecy that they were not allowed to speak about anything they did for seventy five years, a lifetime for most people. He told me his Father was buried in an unmarked grave in Holland because Hitler if he knew where his father was buried would have sent men to find his body and then try to kill the soldiers entire family.

Anyway he was telling about his brother who found secret papers that had belonged to his Father and was now engaged in writing a book about his endeavours. What came out of it was that their father didn't die, although they were never to find out. The unmarked grave was a ploy that apparently worked.

I hope I run into this guy again because I would like to read up about these #SF men who gave up their lives in the hope that it would end the war against Hitler.
