Amazing Lance...

I was reading about this person by name Lance Armstrong. I am sure that many of you would have heard about him. Right, the champion in Cycling. He holds the record for the maximum number of titles for cycling especially the Tour-De-France. That is the most prestigious title for cycling. As a young boy of 13, he was sure of what he wanted and with able support from his mother he decided to get into the professional cycling and was part of the US Olympic Team. And as he stepped on to the shoes of being a professional, he was winning all major titles and was in totaly glory. And he topped the rankings and was No. 1 cyclist in the world. and gloom struck one day when he was diagonised for Cancer. Testicular Cancer has sought plight and his lungs and brain were infected with cancer. When doctors gave him a 50-50 chance of surviving he wanted to live and decided to get back to cycling and he went on for chemotherapy. Guess what he was fully cured. Amazing belief he had that he could do it. When cancer made him physically and emotionally down, he went on to say "Good this happened for a purpose... becuase so far I was neglecting my contribution towards the cancer community". Saying so he started the Lance Armstrong Foundation to help others struggling from Cancer. Lance then decided to make a comback and went on to race and in his first race half way down the track he decided to give up as he could not move on. And the whole world thought that that was his end. He remarked that he was not ready for racing yet. And he went to a secluded place to maintain his composure and began his training. His practise paid rewards for him and he won the race after a powerful comback. And he set a goal for himself to win the Tour-De-france. And as he won, it was a victory for him and also more importantly for the cancer survivours. Later he won six more Tour-De-France titles and that was a Symbol of Hope and Inspiration. He had a purpose in life and we all have a similar purpose in life. Understand and live your purpose.
