Day 495

When you have a vision you can take steps to move towards it – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 6: 41 PM on day 495 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, work, feed myself an egg sandwich for breakfast, drink water by myself, work some more,prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature and continue working only stopping to make sandwiches for Virginia’s Sandwich Run.

Today while I was helping myself in the bathroom I finally figured out what I wanted out of life – I always knew I wanted something I just didn’t know what it was – I want to be independent in every way and not be a burden on anyone when you’re born “disabled” it’s almost like – at least for me – most people don’t expect you to participate in life – get a job, pay your own bills, buy your own house, etc – and although it makes me sad I plan on raising above society’s lack of expectation by doing everything a contributing member of society does. Do you have a vision for your life?

Stan’s very sweet for saying so, but feel free to write what reflects you best.
