Bravery not perfection leads to progress – that’s what I realized yesterday.

It’s 12 : 37  PM on day 2098 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Isaiah 46: 9, have breakfast, learn one new thing – The nervous system of the starfish is very simple…there is no brain and there are not even any ganglia to coordinate movement. The nervous system is characterized by a nerve ring that surrounds the mouth. A radial nerve branches off of the nerve ring and extends to each arm. – and work on my  25 Smiles Campaign    – yesterday Yusuf Abramjee  donated $25 (thanks SO MUCH  Yusuf 🙂 )  which brings my total raised to $5 900 only $350 more to raise before Jan 10 2017 (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far 🙂 ) .

Yesterday I watched “Teach girls bravery, not perfection“ – a Ted Talk by Reshma Saujani – in the talk Reshma says we need to teach girls bravery not perfection and I wholeheartedly agree with her because truly it is bravery not perfection that leads to progress.  Watch “Teach girls bravery, not perfection“ below:
