so, what's brought me to this point? inspiring people. after all, i love nature, but the real true amazing inspirational moments seem to always come through people. and these people make me look at my life and realize that i can do anything!
these are "the smallest people in the world." its a tv show or special on TLC that documents the lives of people around the world that have a sever dwarfism called "primordial dwarfism" that truly makes them the smallest people in the world. at first glance, i couldn't even believe what i was seeing. i almost thought it was a computer affect (shows what i'm used to watching, huh?). but then i saw how incredibly perfect these kids and adults are...perfectly made....but just different from what i'm used to as "normal."
its amazing to see someone who is so small determined to climb anything and everything and do incredible push ups that look impossible...just by sheer determination. its unbelievable to see a young woman who is less than 2 feet tall, holding her "baby brother"'s hand and helping him learn to walk and him being taller than she is...and her entire goal is to "help him." its inspiring to see people who have been given the crazy gift and challenge and hardship and whatever else you want to call it...and them living life the only way they know how or can figure out or can just live because this is the reality of there life...its who they are.
and i can't help but think, every single time i see these amazing people, the first thought that runs through my mind in every moment is "You are one of God's amazing creations." and they are..we are....no matter our shape or size...we are made by God...100% God-made...from fabric to stitching to dying colors to hemming and trimming!
so, i just want to yell from the top of my lungs "YOU ARE YOU AND YOU ARE BEAUTIFULLY HANDMADE BY GOD!!!!" to each and every one of you.
