Day 2375: Flexible in Method

All of us can do anything once we let go of wanting to do it like everybody else– that’s what I’ve realized.

 

It’s 11 : 14 AM on day 2375 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, have breakfast, read Psalm 1: 1 and learn a new word – Definitions for code-switching
1. the modifying of one’s behavior, appearance, etc., to adapt to different sociocultural norms: For many female Muslim students, code-switching from their home environment to that of school requires forgoing the hijab.

 

This morning I realized that all of us can do anything once we let go of wanting to do it like everybody else does it I for the longest time wanted to do everything the way people who could walk did it and sometimes it still breaks my heart that I can’t but I have come to accept that if I am to live the full life that I want to live I have to be committed to my goals but flexible in my methods.
