“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”― Muhammad Ali

It’s 12 : 10  PM on day 2112 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Joshua 24: 15 , have breakfast, learn one new thing – If you were standing on the Moon, you would always see the Earth in exactly the same position, while the stars and the Sun moved around in the sky. The Moon takes 27.3 days to complete an orbit around the Earth. And this the same amount of time that it takes to turn once on its axis. -and work on my  25 Smiles Campaign    – Anonymous  donated $20, Seemachechi donated $50 and Anush Alex donated $250 (thanks SO MUCH Anon, Seemachechi and Anush 🙂 ) which brings my total raised to $6 480 (thanks SO SO MUCH everyone for your support goal surpassed but campaign continues until the original end date, Jan 10 2017 [see next paragraph for details])

Last night I surpassed my 25 Smiles Campaign goal (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far 🙂 ) since there’s so much time left before the end of the campaign on January 10, 2017 I have decided to double my fundraising target to try and raise enough money to sponsor 25 more smiles so by January 10, 2017 I’m hoping to raise $12 500 which will help Smile Train sponsor 50 cleft surgeries. If you would like to contribute to my goal of sponsoring 25 more smiles log on to bit.ly/Give25Smiles and make a donation (thank you so much in advance).

[Update January 12, 2017: Campaign ended 2 days ago. Final total raised is $10 317.04 [enough money to sponsor 41 smiles]]
