Be proud of all the things you can do– that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s 5 : 31 PM on day 882 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to  brush my teeth, try to clean myself in the bathroom, publish my Disability of the Day feature,  practice typing with both hands, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles, stretch my hamstrings, feed myself a salad roll for brunch,    watch TV,   feed myself rice and curry for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

Today I realized that I should be proud of all the things I can do a couple of years ago I couldn’t eat by myself or drink by myself now I can do that and so much more funny thing is I don’t think I appreciate being able to do those things as much as I used to because it has become so easy for me which is part of the human condition I guess, we don’t appreciate the things that come easily to us. Do you take time out to pat yourself on the back for all the things you’ve accomplished?

I LOVE hearing from you feel free to leave a comment below.
