Day 1582: Comparing Lives

Comparing your reality to snapshots of moments that people choose to share is never a good idea – that’s what I realizing.

 

It’s 12 : 20 PM on day 1582 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to  brush my teeth,  pray,  read Isaiah 65, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing – did you know that the Manchineel tree, native to Florida is considered the most poisonous tree in the world. It causes painful blisters if you stand under it during rain, blinds you if the smoke from its burned wood touches your eyes, can poison water with its leaves and will cause death if you eat its fruits  –  promote my Educate Generations campaign–  on $1 335  – feed myself an egg sandwich for breakfast and continue promoting my campaign – still on $1 335 but I’m not worried because I know that God is working through me to make a difference.

 

Recently I’ve been wondering are people’s lives as great as they make it seem on Facebook I see pictures of people going to different places and doing awesome things and I feel like a loser thinking all I’m doing is siting behind a laptop trying to make a difference.
