Interview with a Famous Person

INTERVIEW WITH A FAMOUS PERSON

Everyone can be famous right now; with the evolution of social media, a video can become viral in a couple of minutes but in my opinion, famous people should inspire others, not only being recognized because of a ridiculous performance or their social status. Therefore, if I could interview a famous person, I would arrange a nice event with Nicholas James Vujicic, better known as “Nick”. The reason is simple, he has demonstrated that the only limitation is in our minds.

He was born on December 4^th, 1982 in Melbourne (Australia). Nick suffers from Tetra-Amelia Syndrome that means the absence of his arms and legs. His childhood was really complicated because he was not allowed to study at school, until the laws were changed. The problems did not finish there; when he could finally go to the school, he suffered bullying from his classmates. He ended up falling into a strong depression which made him think about committing suicide when he was eight years old. When he was ten years old, he tried to die by getting drown into the bathtub but he could not do it because he remembered how much his parents loved him. After praying for a long time in order to find a purpose in life, he realized he had a lot of blessings and he decided to motivate others.

Nowadays, Nick Vujicic is the Director of “Life without Limbs”, a non-profit organization which is in charge of inspiring people who have this kind of disability. Also, he is a motivational speaker and travels with his wife and his son all over the world, changing lives with the message. In addition, Nick starred in the short film “The Butterfly Circus” and has written some books and DVD’s such as “No arms, no legs, no worries!” In every work, he tells God is big enough to overcome any disability and that the biggest limit we can have is called FEAR. Due to his job, he has won not only some awards but also the admiration of millions of people.

My questions would be focused on the things he has been doing recently and his secrets to take advantage of every single situation he lives. For me, Nick is not only a famous person but also a hero. The most important thing Nick has taught me is being thankful with God about my life and trusting that everything happens for a reason, no matter how bad it looks. Sometimes we complain too much, and others give up too soon. When I see Nick, I truly believe God uses these miracles to change our awful point of view and demonstrates us that every willing heart is more useful and powerful that any part of our body. If you think your life is meaningless, you should reconsider it because there is always a reason to move forward. You never know, you could end up being the hero for someone else.
