Common sense is not so common. – Voltaire

It’s 7: 09 PM on day 261 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign –no luck – read Life and Times of a Teenager With Disabilities and Bird on the Street – while I could totally relate to the first blog I found the second blog to be a lot more humorous 🙂 – feed myself a Burger for breakfast, open a packet of chips by myself – I had done it for the first time yesterday and I thought it was a fluke so glad it wasn’t 🙂 – watch TV, feed myself rice and curry for lunch, watch some more TV, feed myself a bread and jam sandwich for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

Yesterday as I watching an episode of Dr. Phil entitled Overweight Teens Fight Back I realized that the solution to my brother’s weight problem was simple if the reason he gained weight was because he ate the wrong foods and didn’t exercise then it stood to reason that if we replaced those foods with good foods and encouraged him to exercise his weight would go down now if only I could get my parents onboard with this plan my mother is in denial while all my father does is criticize and enable him. Do you often make things more complicated than they actually are?

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!
