Neskatoties uz to, ka sa\u0146\u0113mis labu algu, t\u0101l\u0101kas perspekt\u012bvas vi\u0146\u0161 sanatorij\u0101 nesaskat\u012bja. 1970. gad\u0101 M\u0101ris p\u0101rc\u0113l\u0101s uz Talsu novada Vandzenes pagastu, lai viet\u0113j\u0101 vidusskol\u0101 str\u0101d\u0101tu par fizkult\u016bras skolot\u0101ju.

No t\u0101 laika M\u0101rim spilgti palicis pr\u0101t\u0101, ka skolai neesot bijusi sava sporta z\u0101le un nodarb\u012bbas notiku\u0161as speci\u0101l\u0101 viet\u0101, kuru sauca par \u00absarkano st\u016br\u012bti\u00bb.

1980.-to gadu s\u0101kum\u0101 M\u0101ris aizraut\u012bgi piev\u0113rs\u0101s novusam. Uzvarot R\u012bgas \u010dempion\u0101t\u0101, vi\u0146\u0161 k\u013cuva par sporta meistaru un s\u0101ka braukt uz sacens\u012bb\u0101m \u0101rzem\u0113s \u2014 Krievij\u0101, Baltkrievij\u0101, Ukrain\u0101, V\u0101cij\u0101. V\u0113l vi\u0146am padev\u0101s tand\u0113mu rite\u0146brauk\u0161ana, un kop\u0101 ar paralimpieti Armandu Li\u017ebovski devies uz da\u017e\u0101d\u0101m velomaratona t\u016br\u0113m. Citreiz dien\u0101 nobrauku\u0161i pat l\u012bdz 200 kilometriem. Taj\u0101 laik\u0101, esot paz\u012bstamam ar Valdi Stilvi, M\u0101ris non\u0101cis Latvijas Neredz\u012bgo sporta savien\u012bbas prezidenta, p\u0113c tam \u2014 \u0123ener\u0101lsekret\u0101ra amat\u0101. 1988. gad\u0101 Valdis esot pierun\u0101jis M\u0101ri atgriezties no dien\u0113\u0161anas Azovas j\u016br\u0101 pie Ukrainas. Piekritis, jo vi\u0146am pat\u012bkot darbs ar cilv\u0113kiem. Un nav satraucis fakts, ka saskarsme b\u016bs ar neredz\u012bgiem un v\u0101jredz\u012bgiem cilv\u0113kiem.<\/p>\n
L\u012bdz pat Latvijas valsts neatkar\u012bbas atg\u016b\u0161anai \u0161is bija M\u0101ra past\u0101v\u012bgais darbs, turkl\u0101t toreiz esot bijis labs finans\u0113jums neredz\u012bgo sportam. Liel\u0101k\u0101 probl\u0113ma esot bijusi v\u012bzu ieg\u016b\u0161ana no Maskavas puses, lai var\u0113tu sportistus s\u016bt\u012bt uz starptautisk\u0101m sacens\u012bb\u0101m. P\u0113c neatkar\u012bbas ieg\u016b\u0161anas viss sagriezies otr\u0101di \u2014 nauda bija probl\u0113ma, kam\u0113r braukt uz \u0101rzem\u0113m var\u0113ja bez ierobe\u017eojumiem.<\/p>\n
Tobr\u012bd LNSS galvenais uzdevums bija organiz\u0113t sacens\u012bbas Latvijas l\u012bmen\u012b. K\u0101 atceras M\u0101ris, v\u0113l liela probl\u0113ma bijusi birokr\u0101tija un liel\u0101s pap\u012bru kaudzes, ieskaitot do\u0161anos uz da\u017e\u0101d\u0101m valsts iest\u0101d\u0113m.<\/p>\n
Par t\u0101 laika liel\u0101kaj\u0101m zvaigzn\u0113m sportistu vid\u016b M\u0101ris uzskata Armandu Li\u017ebovski un Ivaru Graudi\u0146u. Kad noticis vieglatl\u0113tikas pasaules \u010dempion\u0101ts Polij\u0101, Armands p\u0113c titula izc\u012bn\u012b\u0161anas viesn\u012bcas gult\u0101 iegrav\u0113jis angliski, ka \u0161eit gul\u0113jis pasaules \u010dempions. Viet\u0113j\u0101s sacens\u012bbas tika r\u012bkotas p\u0113c principa \u2014 t\u0101s notiek divreiz gad\u0101 tr\u012bs dienas p\u0113c k\u0101rtas k\u0101 lieli sv\u0113tki dal\u012bbniekiem.<\/p>\n
V\u0113l viena svar\u012bga nianse \u2014 M\u0101ris m\u0113r\u0137tiec\u012bgi sacens\u012bbu noris\u0113 iesaist\u012bja tos redz\u012bgos cilv\u0113kus, kuri tolaik str\u0101d\u0101ja Latvijas Neredz\u012bgo biedr\u012bbas R\u012bgas, Liep\u0101jas, C\u0113su un Daugavpils uz\u0146\u0113mumos. T\u0101p\u0113c aktu\u0101las bija sacens\u012bbas ar\u012b basketbol\u0101, volejbol\u0101, futbol\u0101 un \u0161autri\u0146u me\u0161an\u0101. Tolaik sacens\u012bb\u0101s start\u0113ju\u0161i l\u012bdz pat 300 dal\u012bbnieku, ko m\u016bsdien\u0101s ir neiesp\u0113jami sasniegt.<\/p>\n
Interesants moments bijis, kad j\u0101dodas pie sporta komitejas pras\u012bt finans\u0113jumu LNSS darb\u012bbai. Pa\u0161am bijis gr\u016bti to izdar\u012bt, kam\u0113r, piem\u0113ram, Valdis Stilve esot citreiz visu dienu nos\u0113d\u0113jis sporta komitejas darbinieka kabinet\u0101, l\u012bdz ticis pie pien\u0101c\u012bga finansi\u0101l\u0101 atbalsta. Tie\u0161i naudas tr\u016bkums bijis galvenais iemesls, k\u0101p\u0113c tobr\u012bd labu sniegumu r\u0101do\u0161\u0101 golbola komanda neaizbrauca uz Sidnejas paralimpiskaj\u0101m sp\u0113l\u0113m. Komanda bija kvalific\u0113jusies atlases sacens\u012bb\u0101m Madagaskar\u0101, bet finans\u0113jums gan t\u0101m, gan pa\u0161\u0101m sp\u0113l\u0113m nebija atrodams.<\/p>\n
Br\u012bvaj\u0101 laik\u0101 M\u0101ris Kau\u0161elis akt\u012bvi apmekl\u0113 da\u017e\u0101dus m\u016bzikas festiv\u0101lus un m\u0101kslas izst\u0101des. \u012apa\u0161i pie sirds vi\u0146am ir ikgad\u0113jais kantr\u012b festiv\u0101ls Bausk\u0101. Liekas, v\u0113l nevienu p\u0113d\u0113jos 20 gados neesot izlaidis. Personiski pazinis pasaules kantr\u012b m\u016bzi\u0137i Pitu Andersonu un vienm\u0113r sekojis l\u012bdzi vi\u0146a muzik\u0101lai darb\u012bbai.<\/p>\n
Nesen M\u0101ris veiksm\u012bgi p\u0101rcietis infarktu, \u0101rst\u0113joties gan Latvij\u0101, gan Baltkrievij\u0101. Tagad dz\u012bves ritms palicis l\u0113n\u0101ks, un M\u0101ris to vair\u0101k velta savai \u0123imenei. Vi\u0146\u0161 v\u0113l<\/p>\n
