Let me explain myself. I am not one to compare myself with someone who has a worse life than I have to encourage myself. I do not believe in that. Everyone has their own challenges unique to themselves and for me to make someone's challenge relative to myself or someone else's is far from being fair.

Just because someone's problem may seem bigger to our physical eyes does not mean they are definitely suffering more or less emotionally. If a person's psyche is warped enough, the loss of a pencil may cause more grief and hysteria than someone who loses a limb or something. Of course, we can laugh at the supposed 'foolishness' of grieving over a lost pencil compared to another who may have a more serious problem. But the human psyche is so complex that I will not be surprised if that really happens. Now, I am not some expert in psychology but I have had a fair bit of experience and study in regards to this area.

Ha, after babbling so much this is the point I am coming to. Despite the fact that I do not believe in comparing myself to someone who is in a worse off situation to comfort myself or encourage myself, I did find the above video very inspiring. The above person was born without all four limbs. The worse part was that his mum has had scans prior to to delivering him to make sure everything was alright. And all the scans did not show any problems prior. You can imagine the shock and horror when the doctor who delivered him told the parents that he had no limbs at all. His dad is a pastor and his mum a nurse. I can give you the whole story but I think it is more impactful should you watch it on your own......
