尼克·胡哲：拥抱生命的奇迹
在澳大利亚墨尔本，1982年一个新生命呱呱坠地，父母满心欢喜，却没料到命运无情的安排。这个孩子就是尼克·胡哲，他一出生就患上了罕见的海豹肢症，没有健全的四肢 ，仅在左侧臀部以下有一个带着两个脚趾头的小“脚”。
幼年的尼克，父母并未放弃对他的培养。父亲教他用仅有的“小鸡腿”打字，母亲为他特制握笔装置。可当他踏入校园，残酷的现实接踵而至。因身体残疾，尼克饱受同学的嘲笑与欺侮，那些恶意的言语和行为，像冰冷的箭刺痛他的心。八岁时，他在绝望中向母亲哭诉，甚至想自杀；十岁那年，他试图在浴缸中结束生命，幸运的是，死神并未将他带走。
命运的转折发生在尼克13岁那年。一天，他在报纸上读到一名残疾人不仅学会打高尔夫球，还完成许多不可思议之事的报道，那一瞬间，一道光照进他黑暗的世界，他决心改变自己。此后，他凭借顽强的毅力，克服身体缺陷，学会了游泳、滑板、足球等运动，甚至在美国夏威夷学会了冲浪，还掌握了在冲浪板上360度旋转这样的高难度动作。
17岁起，尼克开启演讲生涯，分享自己不屈服于命运的经历。19岁时，他主动打电话给学校推销演讲。2003年，他大学毕业，获得会计与财务规划双学位。2005年，他出版DVD《生命更大的目标》，同年被提名为“澳大利亚年度青年” 。此后，他陆续出版多本著作，足迹遍布全球34个国家，发表超过1500场演讲，与数千万人分享自己的故事。
尼克·胡哲的故事告诉我们，无论命运给予怎样的磨难，都要坚定信念，永不放弃。就像他说的：“只要我们不放弃自己，终有蜕变重生的一刻 。” 当我们在生活中遇到挫折，感到迷茫和无助时，不妨想想尼克，汲取他的力量，勇敢地向着光明前行。
Nick Vujicic: Embracing the Miracle of Life
In Melbourne, Australia, a new life was born in 1982. His parents were filled with joy, but they never expected the cruel twist of fate. This child was Nick Vujicic, who was born with a rare condition called phocomelia—he had no fully developed limbs, only a small "foot" with two toes below his left hip.
During Nick's early childhood, his parents never gave up on nurturing him. His father taught him to type using his only small "chicken leg," and his mother made a special device for him to hold a pen. However, when he entered school, the harsh reality hit hard. Due to his disability, Nick endured constant mockery and bullying from his classmates. Those malicious words and actions were like cold arrows piercing his heart. At the age of eight, he cried to his mother in despair and even thought of suicide; at ten, he tried to end his life in the bathtub, but fortunately, death did not take him.
A turning point in his fate came when Nick was 13. One day, he read a newspaper article about a disabled person who not only learned to play golf but also accomplished many incredible things. In that moment, a ray of light broke into his dark world, and he was determined to change himself. From then on, with unwavering perseverance, he overcame his physical limitations. He learned to swim, skateboard, play football, and even mastered surfing in Hawaii, USA—he could even perform a difficult 360-degree spin on a surfboard.
At the age of 17, Nick began his career as a speaker, sharing his experiences of refusing to submit to fate. When he was 19, he took the initiative to call schools to promote his speeches. In 2003, he graduated from university with a double degree in accounting and financial planning. In 2005, he released the DVD Life's Greater Purpose and was nominated for "Young Australian of the Year" the same year. Since then, he has published several books, traveled to 34 countries around the world, given more than 1,500 speeches, and shared his story with tens of millions of people.
Nick Vujicic's story tells us that no matter what hardships fate brings, we must hold firm to our beliefs and never give up. As he once said, "As long as we don't give up on ourselves, there will always be a moment of transformation and rebirth." When we encounter setbacks in life, feeling lost and helpless, we can think of Nick, draw strength from him, and move forward bravely toward the light.
