I went to a conference once and the key speaker was the Vietnamese woman who is in that famous photo of the girl running out of the Napalm (sorry can't spell that). She was the little girl and she talked about her long recovery and how that Communist government used her for propaganda, how she got married in spite of her disfigurement and how she defected to Canada. The most interesting part was how she eventually met the American who was responsible for the bomb that hurt her and how she forgave him and how they are now friends. Geese I am crying just talking about it. Anyway I will never forget that.

My Granny is third child to my great grand father and was born in wealthy family but one day my great grand father went for hunting and something bad happen there and his accountant saved his son's life so my grand father gave promise to his accountant that my daughter will merry your son as a reward,
So my granny fulfilled her father's wish but after marriage war erupted in country and my granny came to Pakistan from India in 1948.
After couple of years my grandfather started to become weak and about ten years after coming to pakistan he died my granny was only 35 then and she had 5 daughters and a son who is youngest among siblings,
Being single mother it's very hard to live a life even in these days anywhere in the world but my granny was very strong and positive about her life so she started teaching and sewing for money she told me when it happened stupid people around her home and some relatives started to tease her that she can't do this and give your children to some orphanage, she should get married and start a new life but she loved her husband and her children so much so she don't want to get married coz she was scared that if she got married maybe she can't take care of her children,
during that time she even got TB for sometime Thank God she was cured early.
This is the true life story of My Granny and inspirational enough to make me cry some time
She by the grace of God still living in Karachi bit weak but still happy though she misses her home back in India where she was born and brothers,parents and all the farm animals which she had when she was not married :(
and if you want to know more about her you can contact me

The female homeless dog that helped save and keep safe American soldiers platoon and in turn the US soldier who fought/challenged the stupid law of not allowing soldiers to bring dogs of war home this guy won and his family was finally united with their new family member This soldier in my books is the most unselfish person and deserves the best life ever
Too bad most people are not like this man ..imagine how much better the world would be if most people were as loyal as he is....

The true love story about a girl and boy during WW2. He was in a concentration camp, she use to throw food to him over the fence till he was moved to a different camp. Years after the war, he moved to New York City and went on a blind double date - his date was that girl. They've been married ever since.

Josh Hamilton. i understand he were given himself into worry, inspite of the indisputable fact that the way he were given his existence circled and change into able to do what he's doing is merely staggering. each little thing he does for the community and children to attempt to keep them out of the challenge he change into in is inspirational besides.

So many, but the story of Paul Rusesabagina, in "Hotel Rwanda" is pretty amazing. Such a horrible time, and one man's shear force of will and determination and lack of regard for his own safety was able to save so many people.

always about women. my most inspirational story that i know for sure really happened in florida when i was a young lad was a mother who could swim but held her two children above water until some rescued them but she drowned. she actually had the willpower to stand their until she collapsed and subsequently died. they could not revive her. that same story has happened in other parts of the world. give you a little hope for mankind when it is making you puke.
