TED TALK LECTURE REVIEW 

Title: The best gift that I ever survived by Stacey Kramer 

In this lecture, Stacey Kramer gives one of the most inspirational speeches. She brings out her points by describing a gift that she received:

-size of a small golf ball 

-It's going to do incredible things for you

-It will recalibrate what's most important in your life.  

-Does Amazon sell it?  Does it have Apple logo on it?

Then she goes to say the gift is brain tumor.  This is what she said at the end. 

"And while I'm okay now, I wouldn't wish this gift for you. I'm not sure you'd want it. But I wouldn't change my experience. It profoundly altered my life in ways I didn't expect in all the ways I just shared with you.

So the next time you're faced with something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain,consider that it just may be a gift."

I strongly recommend you to listen to her lecture for it will definitely inspire you and make stronger when you are faced with difficulties.  She finds good in bad, and try to look at the bright side.  I've heard that saying so many times but never really thought about it deeply.  But her lecture made me think about it one more time what the problem or difficulties that I'm facing will eventually bring in my future.  

So please take a time to listen to her lecture and you will surely be inspired.
