If You are Feeling Low Take a Little "Faith"
This story was sent to my wife as a chain E mail, but for once it was so good and inspiring I thought I would post it to give all of you who are ever feeling a little down in the dumps some Faith. His determination shows us all the way we should go too! If everyone tried as hard as him we would all be millionaires like Kyle and Carson, period!
This dog was born in Dec 2002. He was
born with
2 legs
He of course could not walk when he was born. Even his
mother did not want him.
His first owner also did not think that he could
survive and he was thinking of 'putting him to sleep'.
But then, his present owner, Jude Stringfellow, met him
and wanted to take care of him.
She became determined to teach and train this little dog
to walk by himself.
She named him 'Faith'.
In the beginning, she put Faith on a surfboard to
let him feel the movement.
Later she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and
reward for him for standing up and jumping around.
Even the other dog at home encouraged him to walk...
Amazingly, only after 6 months, like a miracle, Faith
learned to balance on his hind legs and to jump to move forward.
After further training in the snow, he could now walk
like a human being.
Faith loves to walk around now.
No matter where he goes, he attracts people to
him.
He is fast
becoming famous on the international scene and has appeared on various
newspapers and TV shows.
There is now a book entitled 'With a Little Faith' being
published about him.
He was even considered to appear in one of Harry Potter
movies.
His present owner Jude Stringfellew has
given up her teaching post and plans to take him around the world to preach that
even without a perfect body, one can have a perfect soul'.
In life there are always undesirable
things, so in order to feel better you just need to look at life from another
direction.
I hope this
message will bring fresh new ways of thinking to everyone and that everyone will
appreciate and be thankful for each beautiful day.
Faith is the continual demonstration of the strength and
wonder of life.
A small request: All you are asked to do
