No arms no legs no worries

I wasn't ready!
I have no arms and no legs but I'm very thankful that I have my (1) little ticking ground stick here. People (2) freak out when they see me for the first time. It's so cool. I was at a water(3) slide, all by myself. Everyone out beside the bottom of the slide just looking on or waiting for other people to come down and here I come and they're freaking out. They're like ---. Yeah, like this. And I also(4) attempted to look at myself and got "what happened!". Yeah man.
And there were times when I(5) sort of looked and my life and think of it like "I can't do this and I can't do that", and you keep on(6) concentrating on the things that you wish you had or the things that you wish you didn't have. And you sort of forget what you do have. And(7) there's no point, I believe, in my life where "I wish I had arms and legs, I wish I had arms and legs, I wish I had arms and legs",(8) 'cause wishing won't help". But what I've seen in life were just a couple of(9) key principles and the first thing that I've seen is to be thankful. It's hard to be thankful, man. I'll tell you, when I was 8 years old I sort of(10) summed up my life and thought, I'm never gonna get married, I'm, you know, I'm not gonna have a job, I'm not gonna have a(11) life of purpose. What kind of a husband am I gonna be if can't even(12) hold my wife's hand?
It is a lie to think that you are not good enough. It's a lie to think that you're not(13) worth anything.
Oh, boy!
Ooooh! It's(14) freezing, I can't feel my hands. Ha, ha, ha.
I love life. You know so many people come and say:(15) how come you smile so much? And I'm like, well, it's-it’s a long story, but it’s very simple at the same time.
You see it’s very hard to smile sometimes in life. There are things that happen that you don’t know when you don’t understand, and you don’t know if you're gonna(16) get through it. You know, you(17) go through your storms in life and you don’t know how long the(18) storms gonna be. And today I wanna share with you some principles that I’ve learned to my life that you can use in yours.
Being patient is beautiful. I’ll tell you it’s the hardest thing. But I realized I may not have hands to hold my wife’s hand, but when the time comes, I’ll be able to hold her heart. I don't need hands to hold her heart.
You know, it is scary to know how many girls have eating(19) disorders. It is scary to know how many people are just angry at life because of their situation at home, and angry at others. It’s scary to know how many people actually feel like they're worth nothing. Every single girl right here right now, I want you to know that you are beautiful, you are(20) gorgeous just the way you are. And you boys,(21) yoo da men!
On this DVD I share my experiences in life on how I've overcome(22) challenges and see in a new fresh perspective in life. To be thankful, to dream big, and to never(23) give up. I speak to children, youth and adults about key issues and principles that I've applied in my life that have given me the strength to conquer all that comes before me.

 THANK YOU
