CHICKEN SOUP: GOLD-MEDAL WINNER






  The story is all about Rick and Matthew. Rick is a gold-medalist winner of lifting weight while Matt is an ordinary boy born with an illness called muscular dystrophy, a hereditary muscle diseases that weakens the muscles that move the human body.


 However, growing up with this illness did not let Matt stopped from hoping and dreaming. He didn't cared about how his classmates made fun of him because of his condition. All he cared about is  his hopes for the future, and how one day he would lift weights with Rick.


 When Rick was asked by the principal to pay a visit to him, Matt did not waste his time telling him about this. He even told Rick that someday, when he gets to Olympics, he too, will get a medal and showed it to him.


 Unfortunately, Matt did not made it. Below was the letter that Matt had written to Rick.











 INDEED! MATT'S A CHAMPION! He may have all the reason to stop dreaming, believing, yet he didn't. He is an example of a true fighter. He should be an inspiration to all especially to those who are down, to those who have thought of giving up. Life's not a piece of cake. Struggles come and most of the time, we think that it's not fair.


 But we should remember, as long as we're living, there's hope! There's our Lord God who is with us all the way!


 Continue dreaming and believing and do your best to achieve it. Turn this dream into reality and let no one sop you from doing this. As long as you know you're not stepping nor hurting anyone, go and live your dream!
