QUIT WHINING AND GET TO WORK!
just had to share this amazing story of perserverance and hope!
This came across my desk the other day and I checked it out.
Turns out, it's a true story and very inspiring. Peng Shuilin,
a resident of Hunan Province in China, was in an accident.
The result was, he was literally sliced in half; nothing
could be done to save his lower torso.
Well, he endured nearly two years
in the hospital, countless operations and was finally
fitted with a custom body brace and bionic legs.
After 10 years with half a body, he finally walked!
Not satisfied with just being able to walk, he opened up his
own bargain supermarket called "Half Man-Half Price Store".
In addition to his business ventures
he lectures on overcoming diversities. His life is a feat of endurance, a triumph
of the human spirit. Nothing gets this guy down; he had good care, but his
secret is cheerfulness. If you have a whole body and good health and
feel the need to bitch about something trivial, remember this guy
and put your life into perspective.
