Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. – Garth Brooks
It’s 11: 00 PM on day 165 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, edit the questionnaire I’m using for my book and send it to my friend in Scotland for her to fill out (if you have no idea what talking about refer to Day 153) feed myself a chicken hotdog for breakfast, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign for a few hours – no luck today – listened to music, go to physiotherapy – I am SO proud of myself I managed to bend on one knee – my physiotherapist had been trying to get me to do that for the past THREE sessions – feed myself rice and curry for dinner, finish reading Holly by Jude Deveraux – I don’t think I’ll read it again reading the same book four times now that would be obsessive LOL 🙂 – and watch TV – I watched The Hills for the first time – it’s the first really show that I’ve seen with ambitious people who had dreams and goals of their own suffice to say it was very refreshing 🙂
Today as I sat in front of my laptop eating my breakfast in complete silence I finally saw myself from the outside looking in and finally understood why people’s jaws drop whenever they learned of my endeavours and I thought I’m not all that bad… you (God) deserve a standing ovation for what you’ve done with my life and in that moment I realized that had I not been disabled my story would not have been as impactful as it is today I mean think about it disabled girl tries to change the world sound like a plot straight of a Hollywood movie only it’s not it’s real a fact for which I am very grateful. Do you have enough faith to know that everything works for the best even when God says no to one of your prayers? 🙂
