Day 2802: The World’s Pity That Continues To Plague Me

Choose people who choose you– that’s my message to the world.

 

It’s 1 : 23 PM on day 2802 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse, spend time outside – it’s a beautiful day out I’m glad I took time to appreciate it – have breakfast and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet –  raised  $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.

 

A few weeks ago I emailed someone asking to help him with his project and when he didn’t reply I thought he was busy or didn’t see my email but my dad saw this man recently (for a different reason) and asked him what he needed for his project apparently he saw my email but didn’t respond because he didn’t want me to struggle I was so hurt that even when I want to help people some of them pity me after everything I’ve worked hard to be some people still pity me because of the body I was born into… if people don’t want my humble help then I won’t chase them and not because my ego has been wounded but because I made a decision at the beginning of 2018 to choose people who choose me.

 

Day 920

Pay no mind to those who pity you no matter who they are– that’s what I learned today.

It’s 3 : 58 PM on day 920 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to stretch my hamstrings, take off my dirty t-shirt and put a clean t-shirt on – I almost had an embarrassing moment when a visitor came by while I was dressing myself luckily mom helped me finish getting dressed before the woman came to say hi to me –    brush my teeth,  try to clean myself in the bathroom,    feed myself All Bran Flakes with Soy Milk for breakfast, pray, read Exodus 40, publish my Disability of the Day feature, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles,  practice typing with both hands and feed rice and curry for lunch.

This morning my sister called we had a brief conversation after which my mom took the phone, walked to the other room and said it’s your sister’s birthday on Monday we should do something she’s sitting alone [all the time] the pity in her voice broke my heart and I told her as much through my tears I expect strangers to pity me because they don’t see all that I do but for my own mother who sees everything I do and how hard I try to pity me was beyond me it’s okay though I’m over it God sees all that I do and He does not pity me. Do you feel pitiful when people pity you?
