You sing and write your songs. When did you start doing this?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Sparch: When I became able to talk and utter words! Whenever my parents sang, I\u2019d correct what they sing, then sing to them!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Presenter: What motivates and inspires you in life?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Sparch: Basically, those who surround me motivate me one way or another. Yet, first, I\u2019d like to tell you that I use this wheelchair because of osteoporosis, apart from my exposure to one hundred and twenty-five tremors! I already with one!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Presenter: Are you really with a tremor now?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Sparch: Yes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Presenter: Why do want to participate in this program?<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">Sparch: I want to motivate the world.

He cannot live as normally as his peers. Yet, he has what many healthy people don\u2019t have, a life principle. He won\u2019t waste his time in fruitless feelings. He lives happiness, while others heed nothing but pain and focus on what they lack, not on what they own. Nevertheless, some people think what they lack in are but luxuries which are not worthy to snatch their happiness.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times; color: #000000;\">To be continued&#8230;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">General Bishop<\/span><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'andale mono', times;\">Head of the Coptic Orthodox Cultural Center<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sparch sat on his wheelchair before a T.V. presenter introduces talents.
