““Hard things are put in our way, not to stop us, but to call out our courage and strength.” “Aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn’t be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn’t know that so it goes on flying anyway.” Courage, sacrifice, determination, commitment, toughness, heart, talent, guts. That’s what little girls are made of; the heck with sugar and spice.” "I need you to remember this: There are days, maybe even weeks and months, when it feels like you are never going to move forward. When you doubt yourself because you can't see any progress. But the truth is, if you are waking up every day and doing the hard, beautiful, necessary work of living and learning you are growing. It's impossible not to. So keep going."

You give hope and strength to the ones who need it with these words. An outstanding poem that should be read by all.

Very kind of you Swartz. This is a poem of strength for my daughter and anyone else who believes they have been dealt sh**** cards in life. Take "control", you have the power in you to be anything you want, believe in "you". If you have a strong support network around you, all well and good. Some people are not that fortunate, this is when you must never ever give up on yourself (this for my daughter and anyone else reading who needs to hear). This poem for family, friends..and anyone else who can relate/empathise with those who need support and do not have it.

The young woman in this video lost her leg at 20yrs and while it (the condition, and the video), may be considered confronting, and to some, even "invasive", she epitomises strength...a strong role model for turning it all around. My daughter is of an age (very close to the age of Modesta when confronted with a 'decision' relating to independence/medical), where she will understand the message of this video and for any other readers/viewers, it is up to your level of maturity whether you see the beauty and strength in that message. p.s. I aint' no Angel, but heck....this for those I love or hold close as dear friends, there is huge 'potential'. maybe I'll even make it to heaven yet. ;)
