If you believe you can, you can – that’s what I learned today 🙂
It’s 8: 32 PM on day 539 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, edit my Firstgiving page thanking and informing people that the page no longer accepted donations, post message on Twitter and Facebook thanking people for their support (thank you guys – again – for all you done in support of my campaign), work, prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature, drink tea by myself, feed myself a mango pickle sandwich for breakfast, work some more, feed myself rice and curry for lunch, watch TV, brush my teeth once more and exercise.
As most of you know from reading my tweets and Facebook postings my campaign ended today which made me think me about all the times I plowed through and didn’t give up when people told me no one will donate just goes to show if you believe in yourself rather than in what people say to you there’s nothing you can’t achieve. Have you reached your goals in spite of your detractors?
