Don’t Worry, Be Happy!

Communication breakdown and miscommunication between husband and wife could be devastating to the marriage, like the tragedy occurring in the lesson of the Warfield family. Chester was a speechless husband, seemingly holding grudges to himself, while Maureen his wife was always complaining (or nagging) about Chester and something else. Chester and Maureen actually never engaged in true communication but only one way interaction. Their marriage could have been rescued if they had done something earlier. If you were Chester or Maureen, what could you do to save your marriage?

  1. Life is always full of unpredictable challenges;however,
    a person can always look at things happened to you in
    a different aspect and you will find a whole new different world.

  2. In the world,there are full of obstacles,if you confront obstacles,you should deal with it,and do not just complain
    .Each obstacle is meaningful,and you will learn a lot from the obstacle.Love yourself,and love your everything,the world is beautiful.

    People who are not sound in body but still go on their lives optimistically can be models for us. I am touched by their bravery and faith. When we confront distress, we can think about those people which can make us feel how lucky we are.

  5. Nick is a disable person. Although he doesn’t have legs, arms, he has a positive thinking. He can do everythings by himself. He only thinks what he do have, he know how to be thankful in everythings. He knows every one has their own value to live. Have a beautiful heart and think in a positive way is very important. I got encourage in this short video. Everything is possible, just try our best and face all situations. Smile every day, every moment in your life. Just like Nick! He has a gorgeous life.

    Nick’s story has touched many people. Although he is handicapped,he is still able to do what the normal people can do. He makes his life meaningful and valuable. Everyone has a purpose of life. We just need to “forget those things which are behind, and reach forth unto those things which are before”

    I was touched by his story. The man who has a disable body is braver than most people with sound body. This story tells us to appreciate what we have now. Lots of people are always tracing those unactual things but to forget they already in a wonderful life. We shall look ourselve’s deeply. We should treasure what we’ve got.

    I read his book at the bookstore before. He is really a optimistic person that I have ever seen. People always care about what they don’t have, but Nick just care about what he has and be really appreciative. His courage is an example to all of us.

  10. His story encourages me very much.Because he is a very brave man.Though he is confronted with many tough difficulties,he is still take these obstacles easily.He tell us we are all perfect,and teach us never give up and give ourselves a try!

They are brave people on the world.

    To face a big change is very difficult, it needs a big courage; moreover, the man lives optimistically. He is without limbs but he can do anything the ordinary people can do. He lives hard for himself but we live hard maybe for money, parents, or work. Sometimes, meeting the difficult, we want to evade but he is brave to face. I think if I were him, I wouldn’t live optimistically like him. From his example, I learn there is no obstacle all over the world, as long as you decide to do.

When you complain about your life is miserable , just think that there are more people live hader than you, you are lucky!

    I think Nick Vujicic who is in the documentary film has the courage that general people don’t have. He is so brave when he faces his imperfection on his body. General speaking, if a person is faced with such a situation, he or she will be very sorrowful about this, but Nick did’t. In contrast, he managed to enjoy his life, making hiself like normal people. His disability did’t affect him to look on the dark side of life. So I think he is really a brave man.

    If I were Chester or Maureen,when I found that our marriage had deteriorated, in the beginning I would try to communicate with my wife or husband to find out the reason. If this way couldn’t solve our problem, the worst way I will take is divorcing.No matter what outcome of this marriage, I won’t suicide just like Chester.

  51. I think this short film touch my heart deeply. It’s impossible smoothly all the time in our life, therefore you have to meet the challenge and overcome it. but I think the most important thing is “You shouldn’t think how much you lost. On the contrary, you have to think how much you have!”and you will be happy, because you start learning how to treasure. So don’t upset for anything, as the saying says that he who has hope has everything!

  52. I think that we need to learn the toleration, communication, coordination. We have to face the problems and communicate with each other. We would review our live mode. Where is the problem and how we need to improve?Think of each other’s advantage and disadvantage. I think that the problem will be solved soon.

  53. simple…
    be honest with each other
    because sometimes the problem gets bigger if you hide too long in your heart, and lose control before you have a chance to hold it back.

  55. In Nick story is deeply touching of me.i think i am so lucky. i am a heavy person but i don’t have his brave and confidance, always think i cannot do it, but he tell me nothing cannot do it and don’t give up.

  56. In Nick’s story, I think I learned many things from it. And I understand that I am a very luck person. I have a great environment to do whatever I want. Some times I may get upset, but after I think the story of Nick, I get the power again!
