Born Different: December 4, 1982

"I love my life. I have no arms and no legs, but I have hope." — Nick Vujicic

Nick Vujicic was born in Melbourne, Australia, with tetra-amelia syndrome—a rare condition occurring in only 1 in 80,000 births. He had no arms and no legs. Doctors told his shocked parents that Nick would never have a quality of life worth living.

They were spectacularly wrong.

Childhood Depression and Suicidal Thoughts

As you listen to this punjabi audio kahani, you'll hear how Nick's school years were filled with bullying and isolation. Other children stared, laughed, and asked cruel questions. By age 8, Nick battled deep depression.

At just 10 years old, he attempted to drown himself in a bathtub. But one thought stopped him: "What about Mom and Dad? How much more pain would my death cause them?"

That moment of love for his parents saved his life.

The Turning Point: From "Why Me?" to "What For?"

At age 15, Nick became a Christian and discovered a new perspective. Instead of asking "Why me?" he began asking "What can I do with what I have?"

His mother showed him a newspaper article about a man living happily despite disability. Something clicked: Life without limbs doesn't mean life without purpose.

Birth of a Speaker

Listen to this fascinating part of the punjabi audio storytelling: When Nick was 17, his school janitor told him, "Nick, you're going to be a speaker one day."

Four months later, Nick shared his story with just 6 people at a church prayer group. People were moved. They were inspired.

That audience of 6 would eventually grow to include:

• Over 3,500 stages in 78 countries
• Audiences up to 110,000 people
• Billions reached through television and online content

Education and Success

Despite physical challenges, Nick graduated from Griffith University at age 21 with a Bachelor of Commerce degree (double major in accounting and financial planning). He founded:

• Life Without Limbs (nonprofit ministry)
• Attitude is Altitude (motivational speaking company)
• NickV Ministries (evangelical outreach)

He also wrote bestselling books including "Life Without Limits" and "Unstoppable."

Love Finds a Way

One of the most beautiful parts of this punjabi audio story is Nick's love story. In 2010, while speaking in Dallas, Texas, Nick noticed a beautiful woman named Kanae Miyahara in the audience. Their eyes met.

Nick later joked: "It was love at first sight. I couldn't feel my legs when I looked at her... but then again, I never could!"

Kanae fell in love with Nick's character, faith, and spirit—not his physical appearance. On August 1, 2011, aboard a sailboat, Nick proposed using his mouth to pull a ring from inside an éclair. She said yes.

They married on February 12, 2012, and now have four beautiful, healthy children:

1. Kiyoshi James (born 2013)
2. Dejan Levi (born 2015)
3. Twin daughters: Ellie Laurel and Olivia Mei (born 2017)
