Tag Archives: Being there for people even if you can’t take away their suffering

Day 439

Sometimes you’ve done enough just by being there – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 5: 34 PM on day 439 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself a chicken nugget sandwich, drink juice by myself,   prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature,  tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign – no luck –draw –my brother wanted to use the laptop I took that as an opporunity to draw which happens to be one of my favorite hobbies can’t say I’m any good at it though LOL 🙂 –  feed myself rice and curry for lunch, draw some more and tweet about my campaign some more – still no luck.

Today my grandma came to visit – she always comes on Saturday or Sunday – and while my brother and sister said a few words and went their separate ways I chose to stay because I truly believe that even though she can’t remember me she can feel that I love her. Do you make it a point to be there for people even if you can’t take away their suffering?

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!
