#8 An Inspirational Story

“If I fail, I try again, and again, and again. If YOU fail, are you going to try again? The human spirit can handle much worse than we realize. It matters HOW you are going to FINISH. Are you going to finish strong?” 
― Nick Vujicic

 We can be useful even if we have disabilities, malfunctions, and even if we are handicap. We can be hero or anybody even if we are like that. In fact there are many people like Mr. Nick Vujicic in this video. Mr. Nick Vujicic did not lose hope. Even it is hard for him to stand he will try to stand even it takes him a hundred or thousand times. People that achieved their dreams like Thomas Edison who failed more than a thousand times just to light a bulb. But Thomas Edison did not give up on his 10,000 times he successfully light a small bulb and this small bulb made a great distribution to the world.

This video inspires us to be the change and make a different in our own little way.  Everyone knows that this kind of people needs understanding and care.  It is not easy to speak to public specially when you have no hands and legs but Mr Nick Vujicic shows that anybody can be an inspiration to others. For us normal people who does have a complete body parts sometime we usually don’t use it in a good manner.  We ignored and careless about what we are doing to God’s gift. Some people tend to use their hands for stealing, robbing, snatching and the worst is to kill people. Some also use their feet for running away from their mistakes. Why not this people give their hands and feet to the people like Mr. they are the ones who are merely needed those things. So that they can use this in a good and useful way not just to hurt anyone but rather to help everyone. I am not telling that this kind of people should cut their legs and hands and give it to the one who is needed. My point is why we should waste our time for using our hands and legs for a way that we can hurt other people. Why use them to help people in that way we can make a difference in this world. We can be a better person and of course we can also be a hero.

As I watch this video clip I was so inspire. I nearly get cried because I was so sad of his situation. Talking to this people in that situation takes a hundreds of energy and confidents for me. But for Mr. Nick Vujicic he was so confident to inspire those people who are listening to him.  Listening to what he was saying was a heartbreaking experience for me because he really tries to demonstrate those entire things so that anybody from the audience can really felt every single word that he was saying. I really say that I was so inspired in this video. People who are unfortunate in their physical appearance but emotionally and mentally a good person.

We can inspire other people by sharing our talents or by simply helping people that are needed. Being an inspiration to other doesn’t mean that you have to be like Angelina Jolie or Mr. Nick Vujicic. You can be an inspiration to others by simply doing what’s the will of God and what is good. Being a role model to anybody can be a great distribution to the entire humanity. We can be a great change for the betterment of the world we must be an inspiration so that we can be a role model for the next generation.

The word discipline means to train, to instruct and to command. In fact discipline in the field of child’s development refers to the method of modeling character and of teaching self-control and acceptable behaviour. On the other way around discipline means a set of rules or methods, as those regulating the practice of a church or monastic order.  However, we usually think that the word “discipline” corresponds a negative meaning. In like manner discipline defines as a punishment intended to correct or train.  And also the word discipline is a branch of Knowledge or teaching.

#5 My Hero, My Nanay

There is no exact word to describe how good she was to me. She treated me like her own daughter even though she hasn’t had one. She’s like a mother and a sister to me. She had been our family maid for 2 decades already. She had been the nanny of my aunts and my two brothers but now she’s already our family maid. My Nanay was so generous even though her money or budget was enough for her daily need she always give or share it to the one who are needed.  Although my Nanay always “patad swetress” but she never spend a lot of money for it. She never forgets her priorities and that’s her family. She is the breadwinner of her family and because of that she never had a husband. My Nanay was the only member of her family that never got married.

            7 years ago when I was still in my 5^th grade she always brought me to school. Even if  before I don’t really like to wake up early but she always patiently go to my room and serve as my alarm clock even though  I always scold her because of that, She never get angry at me.  She also serves as my personal chief because she knew all my favourite food, desert, and etc.  One time my classmates surprisingly visit me home. I never knew that they were coming but fortunately my Nanay was so generous he bought snacks and drinks for my classmates and we totally enjoyed our day. I treated my Nanay as my own family and as my best friend she always gave me advice. I’ve totally appreciated all the good deeds she did to me. One time when forgot my book in English and that book contains my assignment I really don’t know what to do so I hurriedly call and ask somebody to get my book. But our place was many miles away from my school. And that time I was scold by my mother, luckily my Nanay volunteered to get my book.  It did not happen once but so many times already. 

            I was still in my 4^th year in high school when Nanany Virgy left me. She went home because her mother was seriously sick and nobody can take care of her mother because all of her siblings had their own family already. My Nanay was so sad when she left me she said that she will cherish and treasured all the moment the moments that we were together. And after a week I had decided to change my dull attitude not for me but for my Nanay. The Nanay that forever be my 2^nd mother and my best friend.
