How many hours have any of us put into the company? Sure we've sat around and worried, speculated, some have ripped Bryan and company to shreds, but really now, what positive thing aside from the "loan" have most of us done?

No one else can make us a "fool" usually we individually do that very well on our own. To think at this time that we could suddenly become "fools" is a foolish thought in itself. imo.

I believe that Bryan has worked tirelessly, to overcome the "systematic" blocks thrown in his way. A lesser man would have given up long ago. The very reason that most wouldn't take the risks and challanges that Bryan has shouldered all along!

If we, "those of us just sitting around waiting for payday" aren't able to continue with a glimmer of positive hope and faith in the man and the program, then why would we expect that Bryan would even desire to continue?

Think about that, what is it about "us", that would make Bryan want to put up with all of this? He didn't need our money to eat or even start the Bistro, according to the history of events that I understand.

I'm not sure why Bryan would put every waking moment into a company if he didn't have every intention of seeing it come to the total success that he has dreamed of, to help others. That includes all of us. I pray that he will continue to have a huge heart and allow us to tag along till the dream is complete!

As with anything, if we could imagine ourselves in Bryan's shoes, working and redoing things that others try to tear apart, then, perhaps we would have some compassion for his situation.

Sure enough, there are many that really need "a withdrawl" yet, if you asked most if this withdrawl they are thinking about receiving is more important than a future of continued withdrawls. I believe that Bryan, and most people view the long term considerations and are willing to understand how business works in the world, and sometimes the best of plans are delayed and then even delayed again. It doesn't however, mean that that dream is gone!

I do hope that Bryan will continue to believe that "we" and his dream continue to be worth the effort!
