This is inspiring to all of us and another story where we could be proud as Filipinos. “If there is really a will , there will really be a way.” I got this over anjomiranda. Hope this could be an inspiration to all of us not only to aspiring pilots and people with diablities.

Do you remember the movie Forest Gump? Last January 1, we had a family reunion and that is when I remembered about this movie. Forest Gump in the movie was wearing braces on his legs because he has something his spines are crooked or something. I saw my 4 year old cousin who has braces on his legs for therapy. His one leg is pointing outward and the other leg is pointing inward. I do not know what is this really called but it will take years before his legs will be properly fix into the right position. He is wearing these braces every time and everywhere he goes and I guess even sleeping. Even at school he wears this but my Tita said she had to carry him up and down the stairs to get him to his designated classroom or destination. But at the reunion everyone was shocked how he manage to get upstairs by himself. Well maybe because he was so eager to play with his cousins that he was able to get up and down the stairs. “If there is a will, there is a way.” This kid is certainly brave for he can still get not upset of what he as and has the courage to fight this in his young age. We all hope his legs get into the right position.
I found this over heartish. I just have to reblogged this because I freaked out when I watch this. I do not know if this is true or not but it is really creepy. Imagine if this is true and we have colonies of worms inside our faces. (hahahah) For me especially because I do not care that much about my body even my face so this one is really disturbing. If the video is a kind of treatment I want to know what kind of treatment is that.
Whether this is true or not I guess I have to make changes in my routine and have some minutes for me to take care of my body especially the face. If this is not true tell me immediately (LOL) if its true tell me too what treatment did they do on the video. I am having goosebumps everytime I watch this. Creepy. Freaky. Yuck.
I do not know really if this is true or not I do not have much time to research about it but when I read about this its just heartbreaking that made me reblog this article. I got it from internetgaga over tumblr. So if you happen to be reading this verify me please if its true or not. Well, what the heck its just so heartbreaking reading this. Here is what happened:
What they did to her and the suffering - These horrifying things done to Junko Furuta had been collected through the Japanese court trial of the case, and blogs from 1989. They show the pain that Junko Furuta had to endure before she was finally dead. All this had happened to her while she was still alive. They are disturbing, but the truth. All of this had happened.

Overcoming fights starts with forgiveness. All of us have faults and all of us hurt others sometimes. This is human, and holding grudges only hurts the one who holds it.
Jesus apparition on a frying pan. Recently, Toby Elles from Lancaster, England and a 22-year-old brilliantly left the stove on after he was done cooking and after he took a quick boozey-snoozey, he realized his error and rushed to the stove. Lo and behold, there was Jesus Christ, looking back at him with burnt eye of grease from the frying pan.
Love isn’t a fairytale, it isn’t perfect, and it doesn’t always come easy. But it is something that we should hold on to for the rest of our lives, because it’s the only thing that’s worth fighting for.
Hero: someone we admire. Someone we look up to. Someone who gives us hope. Not a myth, or an icon, or a legend- someone solid, genuine and real. An ordinary person who does extraordinary things. A hero picks us up when we are down. Believes in us before we believe in ourselves. Inspires us to expand and embrace what’s possible. Helps us realize that we can be heroes, too - Kobi Yamada
