“Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.” – Lao Tzu
It’s 12 : 46 PM on day 2738 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 2 Corinthians 4:6 and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised $12 559 only $6 191 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 75 kids with clubfoot (thanks so much to everyone who has helped out so far).
This morning I woke up to the news of Stephen Hawking’s passing and although I don’t share his atheism I am genuinely sad he’s gone because he was and forever will be a symbol of what’s possible for the differently-abled (there was nobody in the differently-abled community so revered by the general public as Stephen Hawking was I thought that was cool considering most differently-abled people have to fight just to be seen). Rest in peace Stephen Hawking thank you for all you did to change perceptions about differently-abled people it’s now up to me and my generation to move the ball forward.
