Amy Purdy inspires me to keep striving to achieve my ultimate goal ^_^
How is it that someone go could through so much, yet over all obstacles surpass and become the number female snowboarder in the special Olympics. Such an accomplishment like that shows how strong the mind is over the physical body. She wasn't about to let her inhibitions keep her from doing the things that she loves to do. Its kinda of like how they say that when you tell yourself something even if its not legitimately true, if you keep telling yourself thatth eventually you end up believing that it is true. Such negative thinking was something Amy did not allow herself to become taken over by. Overcoming bacterial meningitis is no joke and she looks absolutely amazing and you would never know that she has two prosthetic legs as a result of the bacterial infection. In addition to the loss of her legs she also lost part of her ability to hear. I couldn't even begin to fathom what its must have been like to wake up to half your hearing gone and both of your legs gone as well....Its even interesting to note that even though she lost half of her hearing, her form of speech is quite intact.
