Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you woke up without your arms or legs? Or how inconvenient it would be without hands? Unfortunately for Nick Vujicic he was born with nothing but a torso, a head, and a small chicken tender resembling foot. Nick grew up in Australia and has had a constant struggle with not having arms or legs. Growing up Nick always felt left out, when in reality he stood out immensely for not having any limbs. Nick struggled in his youth to come to terms with the fact that he would never be like everyone else but now he uses this as an advantage to spread the word of God by traveling the world and speaking at various schools and churches recounting his experiences and preaching kindness. Nick Vujicic is inspirational because he never gave up and made the most out of what God gave him.

Growing up you generally have a lot to overcome, but Nick takes the cake as far as it's concerned. All he wanted was to be a normal kid, but no one saw him as one because no one could see past the surface. " He later came to realize that he could use his differences to bring peoples attention to spread kindness which is all he ever wanted after years of torment. He definitely made the most out of his current situation. "I have no arms and no legs, yet I am complete and lacking nothing." - Nickl Vujicic (Charisma)

Every once in awhile you'll come across someone who wants to put you down, but as Nick put so well in an interview with Christian Post "A person's value does not depend on what they have or don't have. There's never been another you, and there never will be another you." (Christian). This is what people need to realize and it's what he preaches for people to realize. You should never let anyone control your emotions, and that's all he wants people to realize.

When you have faith in God, your struggles seem to turn themselves into learning experiences. Nick took the story of his struggles and used to along side his faith to show people just how things seem to work out in the end. With God by his side he faced the impossible and came out on the other side victorious and shares his faith with everyone who will listen.

In life things aren't as hard as they seem, everything has a way of working out and people can't get to you unless you let them. Nick Vujicic was inspirational because he never gave up and made the most out of what God gave him. If you only take one thing from him it should be to be kind. That's the best thing anyone has to offer.
