Inspirational, Moving & Motivational Story of a little girl
The little girl who had to use a basketball as her prosthetic body :
In 2000, Qian Hongyan, was injured tragically in a car accident when she was only 3 years old. To insure her survival, the doctors were forced to amputate her legs.
Qian’s
family, living in Zhuangxia, China, was unable to afford modern
prosthetics and instead used half a basketball to get around on. Once
on the ball she uses two wooden props to help her move around. She
struggled to live her life with a basketball as an underprop, ‘walking’
between school and home by herself.
Qian Hongyan, who was forced to use
half a basketball as her prosthetic body, inspired millions with her
ambition to compete as a swimmer in the 2012 Paralympics in London. The
girl’s story got widely reported in the country, and drew the attention
of the Ministry of Public Security and China Rehabilitation Research
Center.
Qian now has a pair of proper
prosthetic legs, but still says she likes to use the basketball from
time to time as it is easier for her to get in and out of the pool.
May God bless the brave little girl who has inspired millions the world over with her resolute will power.
Moral : Count your blessings and your problems….If your problems outnumber your blessings, Count Again…. Chances are the things that you take for granted were not added up…

Anger, Envy & Insults
One afternoon, a warrior – known for his complete lack of scruples – arrived there. The young and impatient warrior had never lost a fight. Hearing of the Samurai’s reputation, he had come to defeat him, and increase his fame.
