You and only you decide what defines you– that’s what I learned today 🙂
It’s 12 : 10 PM on day 1012 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, read Deuteronomy 29, publish my Disability of the Day feature, stretch my hamstrings, take off my dirty jacket and t-shirt and put on a clean t-shirt, practice typing with both hands and tweet and Facebook about my campaign – no luck.
This morning laying in bed I realized you and only you decide what defines you there are people in my life (I won’t mention any names) who answer she’s sick / she has a slight disability when asked what I’m doing with my life as if that answers the question it’s sad that people choose to define me by my “disability” but I can choose to define myself differently the fact that I have a “disability” means nothing I can be whatever I want to be. Are you defined by other people’s definition of you?
I’m a high-functioning autistic and I love you already. I am right-brained and smart, so I’m not a math savant, but that doesn’t matter. I hate math. English, music, and science are my passions. I have autism. I am a witty, kind, and humorous person.
I love you too Anna 🙂 I think I may be right-brained too I hated math in school thank heavens I don’t have to do it anymore
