Life is a gift not a punishment – that’s what I try to remind myself.
It’s 1 : 44 PM on day 1194 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, read 1 Chronicles 27, publish my Disability of the Day feature, feed myself chickpea curry wraps for breakfast, spend time outside made sandwiches as part of Virginia’s Sandwich Run and listen to music.
This morning I felt like life with Cerebral Palsy was a punishment but then I thought of people who are going through worse nothing seems so bad when you look through the lens of gratitude. Do you sometimes feel like your life is a punishment?
