Nick Vujicic an Extraordinary man...




I had the opportunity to see a short film called "Circus of the Butterflies", where was told the story of overcoming a man called Nick Vujivic who had no limbs and arms, but still went ahead and managed to become an example of life for many. I think that he is extraordinary, because he has led a completely normal life and not self limited in any way, he currently works as a motivational speaker for both Christian and non Christian communities. 

He also wrote a book called "No Arms, No Legs, No Worries!" in which he narrates his life and his constant struggle with disability, he founded the organization Life without limbs, which is responsible for giving lectures to all who suffer some form of disability related to his limbs, he tries to give them the strength to fight forever and not ever give up before any complications that arise in life. I love your story because I think it serves as an example to all of us because we always get trouble by silly things , consider the case ... he has no arms and  legs! and yet is happy and does not care about stupid things, he live each moment like the  last. I think it's a pretty interesting topic to address because it shows once again that the simple things in life can enchant us , when Nick is awake each day  it represents a milestone in his life, a new day to discover and have enriching experiences . 

We should feel fortunate to be healthy and able to enjoy things in a less complex. So why we worry by everyday dilemmas? if we can be happy with simple things as a hug to your loved ones, a smile that your friends make in your face, every aspect that shapes us as human beings, it is important and we must learn to value it.

when life tests us we must try to overcome them and never give up, because that's how we learn...

  1. I love this man, the first time I met her story I must admit that I cried, I think is an example of life. we are always concerned about estupideses and forget what really matters, not value what we have, Nick teaches us to be humble, always stand out and be happy. I hope that everyone knows his story, I'm sure something will learn from it.

  3. Nick taught me that life is beautiful even when we think it isn't. "What doens't kill us make us stronger". The bad things in life makes you appreciate the good things.

    Never give up, you can do whatever you want! Nick is an example of that :)

  4. This is an amazing short with a great message: “The greater the struggle, the more glorious the triumph”… We all have a story and we all have had stuff that's been a great battle, but it's how we come out of it that matters, it's how we deal with it. It was also a big reminder to me of how much power each of us have in what we believe about other people and the potential we see in them.

    It's amazing that a mere 20 minute video can have such a powerful impact. Thank you for sharing this, it's a wonderful way to start this week.

  5. I must admit that I cried when I saw him for the very first time on television. I was so moved by this man, by his strength and how brave he is by how he is able to overcome in everyday life. He is a hero for thousands of people and an example for zillions.
    He does not only overcome to his problems. He faces it with happiness. And I think that is the most important in life.
    Thank you for this post.

  7. I also had the opportunity to see the short film and was actually very touching. This man gives us a lesson of life we ​​all learn deveriamos "always have to keep going, no matter what." his life is a role model where we show that there is no impediment greater than yourself, we ourselves who we put barriers, we get depressed about things so small compared with what Nick has to fight every day, because every day is a challenge for but still never gave up on in spite of their disabilities and the struggle against adversity just to be happy every day. Very nice theme Dina, congratulations!

  8. Amazing topic, extraordinary video!

    I totally agree with you, specially with Nick. Sometimes we feel down, or sad because of several circunstances and is common to hear people say: don't give up!; be strong! And we forgot about the most important thing...We are nobody, we have no strenght...but God lives in us and He gives us all we need and we are winners in his holly name.
    Even if someone that watches this video is christian or not, that person cannot deny the fact that this man (Nick) is an example of strenght and courage. And if a christian watches this video should remind that God is glorified in weakness. His power and his peace His power and peace are reflected in the life of this amazing man.
