Imagine being born with no arms or legs. Could you cope with all the extra hurdles, the extra torments by others when growing up?
While some would just curl up and close themselves off from the world, there are others that truly demonstrate an inner strength and high love of life.
One such person is Nick Vujicic.
Nick was born in Australia in 1982 and moved to California in 2006.
Through out his life many people have asked him…
- What happened to you?
- What did you do to overcome what you have been through?
Due to his parents bringing him up with good values, a lot of love and telling him “We don’t know why you were born this way – But you have a choice…”
To be angry for what you don’t have
or…
To be thankful for what you do have..
Nick was eventually able to cope with the extra hurdles and taunts he received while growing up, by choosing to be thankful for what he had.
Even when Nick came close to taking his own life at age 10, the shear love around him and faith he felt through these words kept him going, as he explains in the video below…
The two motos Nick lives by are…
- Turn obstacles into opportunities
- Transform the walls into doors
A true inspiration to many, Nick inspires and educates youths about what matters in life through the many speeches he gives.
