Earlier today, my mother sent me a video clip. I’m not always too keen on my mom’s interesting tidbit of the day (sorry Mom, it’s that crazy generation gap), but this was just incredible, and I thought I would share.

Meet Willard Wigan, the artist who was convinced by his teachers, peers and society that he was worth nothing. His disabilities meant that he could never learn to read and write, but he’s more than made up for that by developing one amazing talent, turning nothing into something.

“I’m trying to prove to the world that ‘nothing’ doesn’t exist.” - Willard Wigan
