Paralysed

Today I went to the hospital to visited a friend of my Boss that I've never met before.

He had paralysis that was caused by spinal cord injury. The first time I saw him I felt a little bit sad. This suffering turned him to be inactive and made him rely on someone to help him doing his daily activities.

But suddenly my sadness turned into an amazement when I heard that he is still reading some journals and books (my Boss told me that he’s a brilliant guy and he usually writes articles too). Even when he’s lying in the hospital bed, he can still produce article and sent it to the newspaper!

I can see the light of hope in his eyes even when his body is weak. I can feel the optimistic and willingness to share in his weakness. He also has a dream to continue his study.

Then I looked into my own self. I have everything I need to catch my dream. To share what I have to share. No physical boundary. But why sometimes I chose to paralyzed my hope and my dreams. Sometimes I chose to stop believing.

Now, I want to thank you, the wonderful man that I met today, for your spirit that radiates me.

May God gives you more strength and hope and love and compassion :)
