Day 500

Times are changing fast– that’s what I learned today 🙁

It’s 7 : 28 PM on day 500 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Genesis 11 as part of my ongoing quest to learn more about the Bible, feed myself a boiled egg for breakfast, drink juice by myself, prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature, reply to a few comments on this blog,   work,   feed myself spaghetti bolognaise for lunch, watch TV – my brother was using the laptop – and work some more.

Today while working I was listening to the radio and I was SHOCKED at how sexually explicit the music was every second lyric of almost every song had the words fuck or hump in them is it just me or is that totally inappropriate no wonder my brother came home from school in the fourth grade and asked my father what a condom was whatever happened to the days when the lyrics of songs actually had meaning. Are you able to adapt to the new cultural norms quickly enough?

Are we connecting on Twitter? If not, say hi at http://twitter.com/Nisha360

If you’ve given to my cause or you can’t give now, please help me by sharing my cause with others. You can tweet about it like my friend Stan Faryna. This is the tweet he uses: @Nisha360 is a brave, smart young woman trying to make a better world for us all. Please help her do an amazing thing. http://bit.ly/hC7vOu

Stan’s very sweet for saying so, but feel free to write what reflects you best.

Thanks to all my friends out there who are helping me make my dream come true: to make a better world for all of us!
