The Story of Peng Shuilin

In life we keep complaining about what is or why we don't have.
Half the time we seem dissatisfied, though full-bodied and free to choose. Fat people say,"I want to be slim."
Skinny people say, "I want to be fatter."
Poor people want to be rich and rich are never satisfied with what they have.


Keep Smiling,

PENG Shuilin is 78cms high. He was born in Hunan Province , China ...
In 1995, in Shenzhen, a freight truck sliced his body in half.
His lower body and legs were beyond repair.
Surgeons sewed up his torso.
Peng Shuilin, 37, spent nearly two years in hospital in Shenzhen, southern China,
undergoing a series of operations to re-route nearly every major organ or system inside his body.
Peng kept exercising his arms, building up strength, washing his face and brushing his teeth.
He survived against all odds...

"People are made of flesh and blood and a miracle fibre called courage. "
