A sense of mastery over tasks builds self-confidence– that’s what I keep realizing

It’s 1 : 58 PM on day 2526 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 ,  have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised to $2 875 only $9 625 more to raise  by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot.

Yesterday we went to dinner at a family friend’s house and unlike previously because I had a detachable table I was able to feed myself sitting with people my age and my mom was able to eat with the other aunties (before I used to feel so guilty that my mom was stuck feeding me while the other aunties were having conversations and stuff not to mention it was humiliating being in my 20s and having to be fed by my mother in the presence of my peers (at home I am always able to feed myself because our dining table is perfect for me but when we go out it’s slightly more complicated because either we – the kids – wouldn’t be eating at a table or the table would be too high or too low) my detachable table has become my second arm it’s a road to guilt and humiliation free mealtimes no matter where I happen to be I’m so thankful for it.
