• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Inspiration: no arms, no legs and no worries

Thanks for sharing the linked video. Honestly, I'd never even heard of this remarkable young man before, but I've just spent about an hour watching many of the other links to his motivational/insprirational talks. He most certainly has a way of making my own PLOMS* pale to insignificance!

What absolutely astounds me though are the (thankfully few) who "Dislike" these videos, and then add some astonishingly inane and often crude comments.

Yes, clearly their Mommas didn't instruct them in "If you cannot say anything nice, then don't say anything at all". This is the trouble with the internet it throws up the kranks, freaks and weirdos who think they are being amusing or clever. You Tube is great but should be better moderated to weed out these people.

A very inspirational young man. I'm sure he has had black moments in his life but seems to have overcome them but turning a negative into a positive. I'm not so sure I would be as capable.
 
I've seen Nick several times on Hour of Power at the Crystal Cathederal and he's a truely insprirational guy who's able to touch people's lives because of who he is.

A real blessing.

Pete.
