nothing is impossible

We are lucky that we're born without any disabilities. We have two eyes that can see, two ears that can hear, a mouth that can talk and complete body parts that we use everyday. Last Saturday, when I attended a big gathering I watched some performances of the disabled persons. The deaf mute students had their song interpretation with the help of the instructor. But what caught my attention was the blind guy who was very good at singing and playing the piano. He sang some of his compositions. I admired him because even though he cannot see, he did not lose hope. He looked at the brighter side and used his talent for the people to know that eventhough he's blind, he can make a difference. My heart has a big spot for people like that. They prove to the world that nothing is impossible. Even if they are disabled they have a pure heart that's why many people love and support them.

When I studied Literature, I had a blind mate. Sometimes I was going up a concrete staircase and he was going down and he greeted me by my name. Hawkungs is an example of a person that overcame disability.

Well, I understand it's a big displeasure to be born or become disabled. However, even from what you have been able to see in this demonstration, we understand that nothing is actually impossible. In Italy (my country) people of this type have taken the name of differently-abled. Those can safely practice various activities and discover their talents. I conclude this interesting comment saying that people with disabilities are still good people who deserve appreciation and respect!

They really have to appreciated because they are a big help to our society. They share their talents to everyone. They also inspire us that no matter what they still have to prove their worth and being disabled is not a hindrance to success.

We should all meet up with people with disabilities, it makes us appreciate the problems they have to cope with and the courage and determination they show. It also enables us to take a look at ourselves and appreciate the abilities we have and take forgranted. I watched the para Olympics and could hardly believe my eyes at the athletic abilities on display. They draw on inner strength and also they learn to make the most of whatever abilities they have to compensate for the ones they have lost. This is a good discussion, it makes us think and raises awareness.

As you said people like us who nodisabilities are very lucky. They can do any thing with the parts they have to their body. The people who got disabilities are very unlucky. We should help them in any kind of ways. Some people even they have disabilities they can survive with us without facing problems. They are great people.

They are not unlucky at all because they are very talented and they find ways to compensate for that disability. Many disabled people view life in a positive way. We should be proud of them.

They overcome their disabilities and they live life with hope and dignity. It is encouraging to see their courage. So, everyone should do their part to make this world a better place for all. Yes, there are many successful singers and composers who are blind. Artist who draw using their mouth or foot because they do not have a pair of hands. You can see the courage instilled in sport at Paralympics.

Everybody should learn how to respect each other. Disabled people are very inspiring because their life stories are the ones you'll love to hear about. They are very talented and they use it to show that even if they are disabled they can do lots of things.

We don't need eyes to see or ears to listen. It's enough to have an open heart. This history is very nice and there are plenty of them outside. Those persons living with a kind of handycap learn to live the life on another way and have another image or understanding of its meaning. Sometimes, I ask myself if those ones who don't have a physical disability are the handycaped persons, as we believe to have limits or see limits where there aren't. On the other way, those disabled persons show us their way to understand life and how to overcome these limits. Nothing is impossible and we can learn a lot of those persons.

We can really learn a lot from them. They have all the positive outlook in life that we also must have. They did not give up even when they are disabled. They made us realize that life must go on.

It's true! Really nothing is impossible. If you really want to do something or you want to to happen, you will do everything to make it happen. Remember the saying "If there's a will, there's a way". Nothing can control you.

Hi friend, Glad to hear about the story shared by you. Everything is possible to a willing heart. Nothing is impossible to the person who is interested in achieving a lot in his life. We all have a lot of power lies within us, but we don't know about it. Since our real power is hidden and we don't get a proper opportunity to express it. If we have any target in our life, surely our hidden power will exposed and we will achieve our target with our efforts and determination. Don't sit idle and think you are unfit for making targets in life. Make your own target and work hard to achieve it. In fact we will realize our real power while making our aim and work to achieve it. Some persons thought that they don't have the ability to get success in life and avoid giving try to the new things. Don't think you don't have the ability to achieve a thing, we will find our real talent, only if we give a try with a thing. Select a field based on your interest and set your target to achieve. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart and we have the ability to achieve impossible things too. Remember about the below quote, Nothing is impossible, because impossible itself says i'mpossible Even impossible is including the term, i am possible then how a person don't have the ability to achieve his target? Surely we all have the power to achieve our targets and aim in our life. Be active and work hard to achieve your aim. First of all we must have self confidence and positive attitude, it will let us in a good way and give more energy to us to achieve our target. We will get success in our activities based on our interest, hard work, efforts, determination and dedication. Always believe your self and have faith with your activities, power and attitude, it will let you to achieve impossible things in your life. I admire the disabled persons for their confidence and will power, they will achieve a lot with it.

I really admire those people that eventhough they are disabled they all have a positive outlook in life. We must look up to them because they will serve as a good inspiration.We all have to believe in ourselves and nourish the talents given to us. Thanks for the nice comment :)

Yes, the only impossible thing for me is to believe that something is impossible. Owing to the great ability gifted to us by the god, nothing is impossible for us to achieve. As you have said, the physically challenged people are the examples who have proved that nothing is really impossible. And for me one great example is HELEN KELLER, she was the first deaf blind person to achieve bachelor of Arts degree and she became such an author. It is seen in many reality television shows about the talent of these deaf or blind people. Thanks to the many schools and schools teachers available that have played the role to give such people new world and nurture their talents .

People with disabilities have really proven their worth in our society. They made use of their talents and nourish them through the help of their schools and also teachers. A salute to those people whom despite of their disabilities, they did not give up but loved their craft and shown to the world that they can be what they want if they will just believe in their selves.

good day shimaya, the title of your main post speaks clearly that everything is really possible, most especially if we combine it with prayer. plus if we dwell on positive things about our life. although life is not always a bed of roses, but, i guess, if we have the faith and courage then, things will be possible.

Every people has a special talent. I have seen many of disability people showing talent to shine in their future and i respect them a lot because they had the will to succeed in their life even though they are disable. I am wiling to help this kind of people compared to those are begging around to live. Some of them sells their drawing and some entertain us with their songs or dance. I do have a special respect to these people.
