Eng2C 499110061 Kelly The French playwright, Moliere, wrote, The greater the obstacle the more glory

in overcoming it. Tell about a time you overcame a great difficulty. After seeing this quote, I think of three true stories that I want to share. Nick Vujicic is an Australian preacher and born with a rare disorder characterized by the absence of all four limbs. As a child, he struggled mentally and emotionally, as well as physically, but eventually came to terms with his disability and, at the age of seventeen, started his own non-profit organization, Life Without Limbs. Vujicic presents motivational speeches worldwide, on life with a disability, hope, and finding meaning in life. He also speaks about his belief that God can use any willing heart to do His work and that God is big enough to overcome any and all disabilities. He never gives up but keeps looking at a bright side of his life. Driving a car, swimming in a pool, cooking, having a speech in campus, and even getting married with a Japanese girl are what he does when in disabilities. Next, it is a girl named Sunny. She is a girl who lives in a violent family. She got verbal abuse such as four letter words, ironic words, jokes.etc. And physical abuse like hit or kick by her father while he is drunk. Every day her father comes home, she is afraid of seeing him because of his random behaviors. Sunny wants to escape from his father but eventually got caught again and again. At first, she

complains about everything she goes through, curses those miserable things in her life. But in the end, she turns to a positive way to face her life. And the last story it is my own experience. My parents got divorce when I was 15 years old. It is the time when I am preparing for the entrance exam. I didnt express my sadness to others when I go to school, I used to hide my real thought into a secret garden in my mind. The way I overcame this incident is to be optimistic, I dont feel I am not good enough than others. In fact, I want to be a person that can help other people that encounter some similar incidents like me. And overcame depress and melancholy atmosphere in my family and fulfilled my entrance exam.
