See yourself as a product today and your creator as the producer (this may look odd for those that evolved from apes)

3. The unlikely Preacher
A friend shared this story with me. According to him, in a bus conveying more than 50 persons, he felt it was a good opportunity to share the word of God, he said "I was still contemplating whether or not to speak when I heard a voice behind me".
When I turned, what i saw was rather startling. A young man started preaching inside the bus, when I turned to see the preacher, I was shocked, surprised and ashamed. An imbecile was preaching, literarily the guy was an imbecile, water driping from his mouth.
You may find this story difficult to believe,but it is true
Sometimes we sale world class ideas simply because we are too shy to implement them.
4.Jessica Cox
Jessica Cox (born 1983 in Arizona) is the world's first licensed armless pilot, as well as the first arm-less black-belt in the American Taekwondo Association. She was born without arms due to a rare birth defect.
Cox graduated from the University of Arizona in 2005 with a bachelor's degree in psychology and a minor in communications.
Cox has not used prosthetic arms since she turned 14.Using her feet as most people use their hands, she is able, among other things, to drive an unmodified car with an unrestricted license, to type on a keyboard at 25 words per minute, to pump her own gas, and to put in and remove her contact lenses. She is also a certified SCUBA diver.
Jessica Cox flew in a single engine airplane for the first time via Wright Flight in 2005. Cox earned her pilot's certificate on October 10, 2008, after three years of training, and is qualified to fly a light-sport aircraft to altitudes of 10,000 feet. She received her flight training through an Able Flight scholarship and soloed under the instruction of Parrish Traweek.
Cox's Sport Pilot Certificate is for an ERCO 415-C Ercoupe which the Federal Aviation Administration has designated a light sport aircraft. Designed in the 1940s, the Ercoupe was built without rudder pedals. Instead, the rudder is interconnected with the ailerons through the yoke. This unique design allows Cox to control the airplane with one foot controlling the yoke while the other foot controls the throttle.
At the age of 10 Cox began training in taekwondo at a school in her home town of Sierra Vista. At the age of 14 she earned her first black belt. While in college at the University of Arizona Cox restarted her taekwondo training at an American Taekwondo Association club on campus. In an effort to help future students without the use of arms the instructors created an entire training curriculum by modifying the standard material from the ATA. For example, instead of a punch Cox executes a knee
strike. Cox has since gone on to earn her Second and Third Degree black belts in the ATA. Cox has also earned the title of 2014 Arizona State Champion in forms. It should be noted that she did not compete in a special abilities ring.Cox works as a motivational speaker and has shared her message in 20 different countries.
In 2015 Cox published an autobiographical self-help book, Disarm Your Limits. in order to inspire people to overcome their own challenges through the lessons she has learned in her life.
These people turned what you called disability to ability, they saw strength where people saw weakness, what do you see in you today.
