Life Without Limbs


Millions of people have lost their jobs in a matter of months. Many businesses that were going on strong for decades are now closing its doors.But even with everything that is going on around me.I am once again reminded about how blessed I am.

Nick Vujicic was born in December 1982 in Melbourne, Australia, without any limbs and is Serbian Australian evangelist and motivational speaker born with tetra-amelia syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by the absence of all four limbs. Growing up, he was one of the first disabled students to be integrated into mainstream school system where he learned how to write with his left "foot".

Nick have been giving talks  about himself. He motivated people. I once read an article about his talk.
It says during his motivational talk, he demonstrated how he could throw a tennis ball as well as get a glass of water. He also showed us how he could get down on his stomach and then pick himself right up again. Being teased and bullied at school due to his physical disabilities, Nick also admitted to having bouts of depression as a child, and even contemplated suicide by the tender age of eight. However , with the love and support of his family, Nick was able to turn his misfortune around and used his accomplishments to help inspire and motivate millions of people around the world.
Today, Nick is a motivational speaker and director of "Life Without Limbs" an organization for the physically disabled.

We are faced with challenges on a daily basis...some good, some bad. But it all comes down on how we deal with it. Do we turn around and run from it, or face it head on? Attitude is everything. If Nick can overcome his obstacles in spite of his missing limbs...
Why can't I ?
