Inspiration

I was driving home today with my parents and Melissa. My parents brought up a story about a woman from Provo who was in a plane crash in 2008. She was burned on 80% of her body and was in a coma for 2 months! But she SURVIVED! She's a wife and a mother of four. And she wakes up each morning in pain but she gets up and leads an incredible life!

She was on a Oprah about a month ago. I looked it up on Oprah.com. And found this amazing video. Please, please watch it! It's so inspiring to me. Incredible. I want to be a person with that much determination, love, and faith. I've never met her, but she has inspired me to be a better person! I wish I could tell her that. I wish I could tell her how much her story touched me and how incredible she is! I'm sure people tell her that all time. But it really hit me. I'm inspired to enjoy EVERYTHING!! Even getting out of bed without a hassle! I really am so blessed. It's nice to be reminded of that.

I also found her blog. And I can't stop reading it. It is so inspiring I can hardly stand it! She makes me want to inspires others.

So thank you Stephanie! Thank you for sharing your story and for making me want to be a little better. To wake up tomorrow and do something good. To help someone. To make someone feel my love. To speak kinder. To walk taller. To share God's love with his children. Thank you!

You have inspired me.

  1. I read her blog too! And I saw her at Days yesterday. I wanted to say something to her, but I had no idea what.
