Day 384

The magic of life lies in recognizing your blessings before you loss them– that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 7: 01 PM on day 384 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself Batura and chicken curry for breakfast, go visit a few people,  feed myself peanut butter and syrup roll for lunch, go drop my cousin off at the airport,  publish my Kid of the Week feature and  prepare and publish my Disability of the Day feature.

Today I went to visit my grandma at my uncle’s and in spite of my best efforts I couldn’t help feeling sad looking at the shell of the person my grandma used to be why am I telling you this to remind you to appreciate the people you love right now because things change and people change someday the people you love might not even remember you. Are you able to recognize your blessings before you lose them?

Day 278

You should celebrate the lives of legends while they’re still alive – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 7: 45 PM on day 278 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself an egg sandwich for breakfast, drink coffee, tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign – no luck– feed myself rice and curry for lunch, tweet about my campaign some more – still no luck 🙁 –prepare my Kid of the Week feature for tomorrow, go visit my cousin who had just come back home from university – he wasn’t there he went to the movies with our niece and nephew so we entertained ourselves by watching TV while the adults talked in the living room – feed myself McDonald chicken nuggets and French fries for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

As you know I hold Nelson Mandela in VERY high esteem which is why with only a month to go till his 93rd birthday I have created Happy 93rd Birthday Mr. Nelson Mandela – a Facebook page where people can post messages, pictures etc and share their love for Mr. Mandela with the world – and am asking you to participate. Do the legends of your life before need to die before you recognize them as such?
