Life of Resilience
I was rather free today and decided to share about a person I recently learnt about. This man is Nick Vujicic. He was born limbless with only two toes, yet he still lived life like any other
He was determined to live a much more meaningful life. Despite that he had no arms and legs, he was able to write with his toes, use a computer and even throw tennis balls. He knew his accomplishments could also help people who were like him. When one falls, he or she will always have to get up, with perseverance. He says, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you will get." That is absolutely true, we may encounter seemingly impossible challenges, but we still have to strive on with resilience and determination. We must cross the threshold and not lose sight of our goals. By thinking positively in life, one will realise that obstacles are part and parcel of his or her life and can even spice up a mundane life.
After getting to understand his life of ups and downs, I finally realised how petty I was with my challenges at times. If he could overcome his disability, I could also stand up to my weaknesses and obstacles.
