Walk On Water



My friend Kris posted this video the other day, and to be honest when I first watched it I thought, WOW that is amazing! And then I began to read the comments below. A lot of them are people saying that the video is fake and that it's impossible.

That made me think, why would they think that it's impossible? I can completely understand that in this day and age, with all the 'magic' of movies, computer graphics and technology that it would be hard to judge what is real and what is fake when it comes to watching videos.

But go beyond that, why do people say 'No way! That's impossible."?
Is it because if they can't do it, then there is no way anyone else can?

There was a time when man being able to fly was impossible.
The Wright brothers proved the opposite on December 17, 1903.
And before 1954, running a mile under four minutes was consider physically impossible.
But Roger Bannister made the impossible possible on May 6, 1954, when he ran a 3 minute and 59 second mile.

Who knows, this video may be completely fake or maybe it's not and ten or twenty years from now walking/running on water may become a competitive sport. But that is not the point.
Just because something hasn't been accomplished yet is not a strong enough argument that it is impossible. The only real limitations in life are the the ones you create yourself.

Nothing is impossible. Open your mind to all possibilities.
If you want to walk on water, then go walk on water.
Prove the impossible possible.
