A friend at work shared a video with me about this man, Nick Vujicic. He was borned without limbs but despite that, he overcame his "disability" and has made it his job to inspire others with his story ever since.
Video
It wasn't suppose to be a soapy drama. It was suppose to be an inspiring video; a video to motivate people. But I don't know why, I teared after watching the video.
Maybe its because it suddenly struck me that there are many little things that I take for granted which people pray for. My ability to walk, my ability to see, my ability to talk and my ability to love the people I love.
I look at the teens I am working with now and I can visualise many of them becoming very successful in future. But I fear not many will ever really appreciate life as it is.
They are like me, so comfortable here in Singapore that our so called life crisis seems so minute when compared to others living at the "different" side of the world. And yet we complain about almost everything around us, let monetary stuff blind us and party our lives away.
I think at some point of time, I have lost track of the goal I have in life and it is time to do a little bit of reflection and bring that goal back on track. It is not going to be an easy route but I hope inspring stories like Nick Vujicic's will keep me going.
