Things were all good yesterday
And then the devil took your memory
And if you fell to your death today
I hope that heaven is your resting place
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
But then that could’ve been the medicine
And now you’re lying in the bed again
Either way I’ll cry with the rest of them

– Ed Sheeran, “Afire Love”

It’s 12 : 10 PM on day 1585 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to  brush my teeth,  pray,  read Jeremiah 2, publish my Disability of the Day feature,feed myself French toast for breakfast,  learn one new thing – did you know that the very expensive spice, saffron, comes from a type of crocus flower  – and promote my Educate Generations campaign–  I am SO GRATEFUL to have raised $ 1 335 for the Malala Fund so far I know that with God working through me and help from all of you more money can be raised for the Malala Fund in the coming days and months 🙂 .

Recently I heard “Afire Love” by Ed Sheeran again I could relate to the lyrics as my grandma had issues with her memory during the last few years of her life. Listen to the sad yet beautiful “Afire Love” by Ed Sheeran below:
