Thumbs up Amazing Women

I found this totally inspiring. First, I felt impaired and ashamed, to think how functional and well-adjusted this woman is. From watching it I surmise that she must've lost both of her arms as a child or been born without arms because the brain is quite plastic before the onset of puberty at approximately age 12. When she cracked the eggs and put them in the frying pan, I swear I saw a pair of hands.

And the second woman just blows my mind! Talk about overcoming odds, obstacles, and the "wisdom" of the physicians who said she would become a vegetable! It just shows you what the strength of spirit can accomplish.

These made my day; I hope to make yours.

One never realizes how much one is blessed or what one has, until there is a loss or one sees something so inspiring as this.
