Technology can play a huge role in me gaining my independence – that’s what I realized today.

It’s 1  : 02 PM on day 1178 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray,  brush my teeth,  read 1 Chronicles 11, feed myself   boiled egg and All Bran Flakes for breakfast,   publish my Disability of the Day feature,  practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, listen to music – I love Cassadee Pope that girl can sing – stretch my hamstrings and hang out with my family.

This morning my mom had to drop my brother at school and my sister was sleeping so I used the remote to open the gate for our housekeeper which got me thinking about the role that technology could play in me gaining my independence currently the gate is the only thing in the house that you can open and shut with a remote but I did some research and found out that there are systems you can install which would allow you to open and shut doors and windows with a remote heck there’s even a driverless car which will be out in the U.S in 2015 so it looks like I will be more independent than I thought I could be thanks to modern-day technology.
