I lost both my hands in a train accident. It felt like the end, but it actually taught me how to truly live. Here is my daily reminder to never stop dreaming. [OC]

After that train accident took both of my hands, I honestly thought my world had ended. But out of that darkness, I discovered something incredible, I discovered true life. Today, a new sunrise is waiting to be born. All we have to do is keep dreaming, because a single dream today can ignite thousands of sunrises tomorrow. Every single morning, I imagine myself standing on my tiptoes, reaching up to the sky. With the finger of my soul, I paint the stars, the cosmos, and every single one of my dreams.

I may no longer have hands to hold the world, but my smile has become the magic that shapes my life. Every time I smile, I catch a warm ray of sunshine in my heart, and I gladly give it away to everyone I love.I just wanted to share this little piece of my heart with you all today. Keep smiling, no matter what!

EDIT / UPDATE: Wow, I am completely overwhelmed by the incredible amount of love and support you all have shown me today! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for every beautiful comment.

I want to apologize because I won't be able to reply to each of you individually. As I mentioned to someone earlier, I type using my foot on a computer keyboard, and since I've been doing this for 14 years, it can get very tiring after a while.

Please know that I am reading every single message, and your kindness is making me smile so much. You have filled my day with sunshine! Keep shining and never stop dreaming!
