When Nick Vucijic was thirteen, a tomato red pimple grew on his nose that made him feel like rudolph red nose australian. He fretted about it and showed the red spot to his mum. And guess what his mum told him, "don't scratch it!" Nick smirk, "I dont have arms mum." She forgot about his condition that time, well, he was not treated differently from the other kids, rather they would often tell him to play along because he's normal. "You just loss some bits and pieces son" they told him. His lackness were well compensated with tender love and care. Something hit me on this, if Nick who's born with no arms and legs survives this world and making a meaningful life at this time then why cant I?
Deuteronomy 16:17 KJV
Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessings of the Lord your God which He has given you.
So, Im giving my very best in this lifetime. Because God had made me extra special and I just cannot thank Him enough. A whole of experiences and surprises this "thing" has brought me from random people I encounter at the rehab center to the smallest things like the butterflies and the mountain and ocean. My condition will not be a hindrance in creating and appreciating the what we call, life. So thank you Lord God. :)
