I just wanted to share this touching story of survival and what will power can do.
If you feel you have lost everything in life and you can't go on anymore, this story would change your perception of life, and give you a reason to keep fighting.
Its not over as long as you have life.

At first glance, this image seems harmless enough. A little girl sitting on a lifeboat. But the story behind it is tragic. The little girl in the photo escaped death twice in the space of a week.

Eleven year old Terry Jo Duperrault was left to die on a ship after her whole family was murdered.

On November 12, 1961, Terry Jo, her parents, and two siblings traveled back from The Bahamas where they spent the week snorkeling and collecting shells on the beach.

The ship they traveled on was named Bluebelle, and it was captained by Julian Harvey, a former Air Force fighter pilot and an experienced sailor.

Harvey was accompanied by his sixth wife, whom he had married in July earlier that year.

That night, Harvey drowned his wife. He was caught in the act by Mr Duperrault (Terry Jo's father). Since Harvey couldn't just let Mr D. go since Mr. D was a witness to a murder, Harvey killed him. Harvey also killed Mrs. Duperrault and both of Terry Jo's siblings, her brother Brian (who was 14), and sister Renee (7).

It is believed Harvey planned to kill his wife to collect on her $20,000 double indemnity insurance policy but was observed by Dr. Duperrault, and then had to kill him, his wife, and two of his children, who may have witnessed his murder.

It was later found that Harvey had survived a car accident that claimed another of his six wives and her mother, and that his yacht Torbatross and his powerboat Valiant had sunk under suspicious circumstances, yielding large insurance settlements.

Before the horrific murders began, Terry Jo was sleeping below deck while her family stayed in the cockpit. She was startled awake when she heard her brother yelling, "Help, Daddy! Help!"

She also heard brief running and stamping noises, followed by a deathly silence.

She laid in her bed, scared out of her wits, too scared to go up to see what was happening.

Later, she slowly left her room to see what had happened. She saw her mother and brother lying crumpled in a pool of blood in the main cabin. She instantly knew they were dead.

She climbed up the stairs and stuck her head out of the hatch. Harvey suddenly lunged at her, and shoved her down the stairs.

"Get back down there!" he growled.

Terry Jo didn't have time to deal with what she had just found out, that her whole family was probably dead and the murderer was still on the ship.

Because around that same time, the ship started sinking. Harvey orchestrated this so he could abandon the bodies of his victims at sea. That was why he told Terry Jo to stay down in the cabin, because he wanted her to go down with the ship.

He underestimated the eleven year old girl's will to survive.

Terry Jo watched from her cabin in the sinking ship as Harvey sailed away in a small dinghy.

When Harvey was gone, Terry Jo quickly took a cork life boat and launched herself on it. The ship carrying her dead family sank.

Terry Jo went on to spend four days at sea on that flimsy plastic raft, without food, change of clothes, or water. Her throat burned from thirst, and her stomach ached from hunger, she had no cover from the sun's merciless heat; it's a wonder the girl survived at all.

On the fourth day since the ship sank, Terry Jo was rescued by a passing ship.


This haunting picture was taken just before she was rescued.

Harvey thought he had it all figured out. He went to the authorities and reported that he was the only survivor in a tragic sinking, and that he barely escaped with his life.

Things took a very different turn when it was revealed the ship had another survivor.

The following day, Harvey was found dead in his hotel room, in an apparent suicide.

He knew he would be convicted of those murders, and didn't see the point in living anymore. His ashes were scattered at sea, per his request in his suicide note.

As for Terry Jo, her family's gruesome murders and her days drifting alone at sea affected her deeply, but she is a survivor. She went on to live a full life; she fell got married, had children and grandchildren, and found work as a Water Management Specialist.

Maybe it's ironic, but she made it her life's mission to protect bodies of water.

She wrote a book about her ordeal, which she title Alone: Orphaned on the Ocean.



She told CBS News, “I always believed I was saved for a reason. If one person heals from a life tragedy [after reading my story], my journey will have been worth it.”

The moment we live life everyday reminding ourselves that no one owes us anything, we would be more fulfilled and live a better life.
It would make us hustle better and be more independent.You would be amazed at the things you can achieve on your own.
Apart from your spouse, and your parents(to a certain age 16-18), no one owes you anything, not even your children, when they start making money.
If you need help from your friends and they give you, fine.If they don't help, don't feel sad because, THEY DON'T OWE YOU ANYTHING, even if you have helped them in the past, except you gave them a loan.

That looks like a calf, its not a goat .
Let the owner of bress give it to whoever she deems fit

Just keep cautioning her
Spank her a bit
She would outgrow it
If she doesn't, shame would make her outgrow it when her classmates start making jest of her .
She is just exploring and trying to understand her environment.
You can introduce her to better scents or smells , to change her preferences .

Smithwesson7:

Thank you so much. Will discuss this with him

You're welcome.

nwakgr8:
Mehn... @41 I don't know if he can still learn something o

False .
He can learn anything he chooses to learn.
Knowledge and skill acquisition isn't limited by age anymore in the digital age.

Ask him what he loves, he should learn what he loves or has some interest or drive to learn .

He can be a programmer, digital marketer, content creator, video editor.
He can be anything he chooses to be, no king, no lord, no man can say him nay.
He is limited only by his mind.

Happy for you

This would be interesting

We could pair up our deliveries together to reduce cost ...I also need a package delivered to Sango, but not from Ajah
Even if you aren't willing to pair up, please alert me when you get someone

bason007:
you need cash to hustle that I don't have. I wish I could get a decent person who needs it.

I am not where I want to be yet.
If I tell you my story, you would be shocked.
I started with literally nothing.
There is always something you can do about your situation, without selling your body parts or doing something illegal.

Please don't solve a temporary problem with something that would have a permanent effect on you

Do you have any skills ?

nabiz:
l want my children to love more because I love her even more than my children. She is my eternal companion

Let your children love who they want to love more Sir please.
Don't be worried at all.
Let them choose.
It doesn't mean she doesn't love her mom, she just loves you more.
Whenever she says it, tell her you love her too and give her a peck on her forehead, or her cheeks.She deserves it

ikh777:


you spend more time with them probably... SO SWITCH.

let your wife spend most of the time with them.... AND you will see a difference. The little girl does not understand what she says yet... ALSO watch whatever she watches and her little friends and her books.... keep her morally clean and you will raise a wonder little princess

SO its now immoral for a daughter to say she loves her father more than her mom ?
And who told you she doesn't know what she is saying ?
Wow !

nabiz:
To go straight to the point, this is the second time my five years old daughter is telling my wife that she loves me more than my wife. This is giving me a great concern. I have a wonderful family infact my wife is the best woman on earth. I don't really know why my daughter should be saying this. I love my wife and prefer my children to love her more. Pls do you think the five years old girl meant what she say. What should I do or what should my wife do. I have notice that my wife is not have about that. Pls advice me

There is nothing to do Sir . She just told you how she feels, don't try to force another feeling on her na .

This is why I love kids, dem no dey do eye service, dem no send you, dem go tell you how e dey do them.

She says she loves you more, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I am curious why you want her to love her mom more ?

bason007:
Please I need useful advice
Sometime last year, I do an importation, which I borrow money to add with my savings. unfortunately, custom and Nigerian army impounded the goods. I have to sell everything to pay up my debts. I am now living in lack and I have decided to donate one of my kidney, doing so I will save a life, also take care of my studies. My fear is this: will I live a normal life again? And where can I get a good buyer. Please useful advices

Don't sell it. Keep hustling , you would come out of this strong ..Don't give up yet

Build you would be glad you did 5 years from now.
Use about 6-7 Million to build, invest half of the rest.
You would have change to invest in a business
11 Million is a lot of money

I don't think there is any level 14 civil servant who doesn't have a car or who can't afford a car. You probably only read the caption

I read the body as well...We both know not just the level 14 workers would go to work....
There would be receptionists, there would be cleaners....
