Nick Vujicic Happy Valentine's Day 2010

I first saw him at the San Anotonia, TX airport on Feb 7, 2010, sitting across from me while waiting for our flight to Los Angeles. Suddenly I realized he had no arms and legs and yet he seemed happy. His helper and his helper's girlfriend just sat there, three friends engaged in a life that is very different then most of us will even know. A man with no arms and no legs, sitting in the airport chair, with his wheel chair and helper companion close at hand. I thought a million thoughts, how does he eat and then his companion fed him the fruit. Another man came over to say thank you for the motivational talk he must have given while in TX. Nick, whose name I found doing a Google search, greeted him with gratitude and told the man who had courageously come up to thank him, "give me a hug man". I watched amazed at Nick's grace, confidence and leadership. Nick, you inspire me. In that moment watching you get fed the fruit that you and your companions had bought, I realized I was in the presence of someone very special. As a Christian, I thought Jesus' dying on the cross was nothing compare to living a whole life with no arms and legs and yet being of the same depth of service and inspiration as Christ. I was touched by your capacity to live, to be as you are and to obviously inspire. I am grateful that I sat across from you. I am disappointed I did not have the courage to talk with you. I am moved to be more and to do it in honor of you. Keep up the great work Nick Vujicic. You have inspired more courage in me to be more than I thought I could be. Happy Valentine's Day.
