You can’t choose what happens but you can choose how you react to it – that’s what I keep learning.

It’s 4  : 12 PM on day 1161 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth,  pray, start reading Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking  by Malcolm Gladwell,  feed myself  boiled egg and All Bran Flakes for breakfast, read some more, feed myself stir fry for lunch, continue reading, publish my Disability of the Day feature and publish my Kid of the Week feature.

Do you choose to make the best of every situation?
