Day 659

Part of growing up is understanding that how people treat you doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with you – that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s 8: 19 PM on day 659 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to prepare and  publish my Disability of the Day feature, work, brush my teeth, feed myself Puri and potato curry   for breakfast, work some more,      feed myself  grilled chicken  for lunch. continue working, watch TV,  feed myself steak, French fries and salad  for dinner, brush my teeth once more and play 30 seconds – the board game – with my family

Today my father said to my mother “N” – my sister – only wants to go places with me I’ll take her to which my mother said what about Nisha who’s going to take her places my father got so irritated and said why do always bring Nisha up when I’m  talking about “N”  (my mom doesn’t want me to feel left out) the way he said it made me feel like he thought suggesting my sister  and I be  treated equally was absurd  because I’m just a thing that sits around doing nothing but I keep realizing that the way people  treat me has nothing to do with me. Have you grown up?
