Day 2545: Be Present and Laugh A Lot

Always be present – that’s my message to the world.

It’s 12 : 58 PM on day 2545 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Genesis 30: 20, have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised to $3 290 only $9 210 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot .

This morning my mom was helping me with something and said who’s going to take care of you when I die and I responded just take care of me while you’re alive which managed to make her laugh so in that moment I accomplished my mission the future will be whatever it will be but I’m determined to fill the present with faith, kindness, love and joy.

Day 975: Be present

Be present – that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s 1 : 48 PM on day 975 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself All Bran Flakes for breakfast, pray, read Numbers 28, publish my Disability of the Day feature,practice typing with both hands, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, take off my dirty t-shirt and put on a clean one and tweet and Facebook about my campaign.

This morning as I was combing through my bank statement I yearned for a simpler time in my life a time when I didn’t have a bank account or any of the adult worries that I have now it’s funny all kids want to do is grow up and all adults want to do is stay young we just never seem to be happy in the present I for one am going to stop yearning for my childhood and start enjoying being twenty-two. Do you sometimes wish you could be a kid again?
