Sometimes you have to step back and get some perspective – that’s what I learned today.

It’s  3  : 47 PM on day 990 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Deuteronomy 7,  publish my Disability of the Day feature,  stretch my hamstrings, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles,  feed myself All Bran Flakes and a boiled egg for breakfast, email, tweet and Facebook about my campaign –  still no luck but I’m not quitting I know there are people out there who care that kids all over the world are being sold like they’re merchandise I just haven’t found those people yet   –  spend time outside – I never get tired of being in nature the blue sky, the trees everything is so beautiful it’s a pity only a few people notice it – feed myself a peanut butter sandwich and a apple for lunch and  practice typing with both hands.

Today I was feeling down and dejected nothing I did seemed to be working so I stopped what I was doing and spent some time outside it seems like such a random thing to do but sometimes you have to step back and get some perspective. When times are tough do you step back from the situation and look at it from an objective point of view?
