I won’t stop till I reach the Top – Maj D P Singh
Watch India’s first marathon runner on blades (artificial leg), Major D P Singh speak about overcoming disability through sport, at India Inclusion Summit.
I always wanted to run, but it took me 10 years to do so. And what worked as a catalyst for me? When people raised a doubt about my ability to do so. I thought, Why not my let my amputated leg talk back!
Pains are for strength “COMFORT” gets you weakness.
“GIVING” gets you back many folds, “Giving Up gets you nowhere…
I would rather TRY and fail then quit…
You improves only… When your mind, your body & everything in you says STOP! STOP!… but you PUSHES further…
You want to be anything but yourself, it is easy to dream of being someone else, yet only those who become themselves live.
If you ever wish to “GIVE UP” something. Give up “GIVING UP”…
I thank each FALL as it prompted me to do a pushup 🙂 and stand more stronger to fight back…
The sun is setting behind the sky… The blow of wind is very high… But I will hold on and stay… Coz soon there will be a new day…
