Live Life Without Limits - PhotoHunt

Nick V 1

PhotoHunt theme : Your book(books)/ Rousing

Motivational speaker Nick Vujicic visited Singapore in early September. He walked in to rousing standing ovations from packed crowds at all his speaking venues. Tickets to his events were sold out.

He was invited to the Istana to meet our President Tony Tan. He had a unique experience swimming with sharks at Sentosa's Marine Life Park.

An excellent speaker, he inspired many Singaporeans with his outlook on life despite having no limbs.

God bless Nick Vujicic...... a truly inspiring guy.

I have finished reading Nick Vujicic's books. The books I am reading these days are children's story books. Every Saturday I would bring my young nephews to the library to borrow books.

We were lucky to board a mobile library one weekend. The boys were thrilled that they were able to borrow books in a bus although it was quite cramped and crowded. :)

      There are lots of motivational talks every month, some talks are not cheap. Nick is one extremely inspiring guy who touches my heart and soul.

    I saw a documentary on Nick Vujicic instead. He was very motivating.

    He swam with sharks in Sentosa? Oh my...

    BTW, you might like to look out for a Japanese film called "Nobody's Perfect" and feel roused and inspired by it...

      Didn't get a chance to get up close to him. Tickets for his event was sold out fast in Singapore too. :)
      One amazing guy.

    It's nice, I think, that a motivational speaker gets such a draw. I haven't heard of him but I'll have to heck out his books.

    Sadly, in retirement, downsizing, and living part of each year in India, I had to get rid of hundreds of book - plus nearly 500 cooksbooks. I only saved my very favorites.

    Hi ECL, wonderful photos and take on the two themes. Nick sounds like a very positive individual. Your photos of him swimming with the sharks is amazing. I also love the mobile library. What a fun treat for your nephews.

    Have a wonderful weekend.
