I stopped posting for the past two years. To be honest, I realized my thoughts and my feelings two years ago was constantly negative and emo...lack of hope and purpose. I had an attitude of "Why is the world against me?". As a result, my faith in my Lord Jesus Christ is the only way I can escape from the pain I went through two years ago. The old title "Dying to Live" meant to give up everything in my life to my Lord Jesus Christ, "Dying" to my self, in order to find peace, love, purpose, and life, "to Live". To me that was the only way to escape from my pain.
Recently, I began to look back..."What has changed for the past 2-3 years?" I realized that God has really brought me a lot of hope in my life. He has brought me joy, peace and a completely different mindset. Because of this change, and my recent decision of reviving my blog, I changed the title. My new title "Living on the Edge" is in a way a new way of thought for me. It is no longer an attitude of "why is the world against me?", but rather "How can my challenges, hardships, views, faith, etc. change and inspire the world around me?" My hope is my posts can bring discussion, encouragement and a challenge of "Living on the Edge".
First Post:
Nick Vujicic is an Australian motivational speaker/evangelist. He was born with a very rare disorder called tetra-amelia syndrome. In short, he was born with no limbs. He went through a lot of hardships in his life and lead him to contemplate suicide at the age of 8. Long story short, he found hope in his life through his faith in Jesus Christ and has been using this as a way to love and motivate people all over the world. This past February he got married and he is currently living in California.
The following video is a compilation of a few motivational speeches he gave to schools. Even though he is a Christian, this video is for motivational purposes. As a result, they are not religious based. I encourage no matter what your background is, to check out this video. I think it very encouraging and life changing. Hope this will motivate you to Live on the Edge. Let me know what you think.
