“Death is inevitable, living a life you are proud of is something you can control” – Claire Wineland

 

It’s 11 : 46 AM on day 2921 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, spent time outside,  read a Bible verse and do some work

 

A few days ago I found out that Motivational Speaker and YouTuber Claire Wineland died after undergoing a lung transplant (she needed a lung transplant because she had Cystic Fibrosis)  I am so sad but the essence of Claire’s story is not that she died but rather that she lived fully in the face of impending death – a lesson to us all: Don’t wait for things to be perfect to be happy be happy right now. My deepest condolences to Claire’s entire family.

Day 2792: “Meet Claire | My Last Days”

“You’re never going to be happy with what you get unless you’re happy with what you have.” – Claire Wineland

 

It’s 12 : 43 PM on day 2792 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse, have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – A HUGE thanks to GodSpeaks  who donated $10 and Anonymous who donated $25 which brings the total raised to $14 469 only $4 281 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to reach my new goal of helping 75 kids with Clubfoot by June 17, 2018.

 

Two days ago I watched “Meet Claire | My Last Days” – the story of Claire Wineland who is living life to the fullest lung failure caused by Cystic Fibrosis be damned – I love the way Claire lives but most of all I LOVE Claire she is joy, hope, humour, wisdom and not all afraid to talk about death (we as society are so afraid to talk about it and yet she is very comfortable with it).
