Day 2738: RIP Stephen Hawking

“Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.” – Lao Tzu

 

It’s 12 :  46 PM on day 2738 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 2 Corinthians 4:6  and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised  $12 559 only $6 191 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 75 kids with clubfoot (thanks so much to everyone who has helped out so far).

 

This morning I woke up to the news of Stephen Hawking’s passing and although I don’t share his atheism I am genuinely sad he’s gone because he was and forever will be  a symbol of what’s possible for the differently-abled (there was nobody in the differently-abled community so revered by the general public as Stephen Hawking was I thought that was cool considering most differently-abled people have to fight just to be seen). Rest in peace Stephen Hawking thank you for all you did to change perceptions about differently-abled people it’s now up to me and my generation to move the ball forward.

Day 2021: The Theory of Everything

There should be no boundaries to human endeavour. We are all different. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there’s life, there is hope. – Stephen Hawking, The Theory of Everything

 

It’s 12 : 19 PM on day 2021 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 2 John 1,  have breakfast, learn one new thing –Since pitch is such a close proxy for frequency, it is almost entirely determined by how quickly the sound wave is making the air vibrate and has almost nothing to do with the intensity, or amplitude, of the wave.  –   have breakfast and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign – yesterday Laura donated $40 and Julie  donated $25 (thanks so much Laura and Julie :) ) which brings the total raised to raised $3 822 only $2 428  more to raise by 10 Jan 2017  (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far :)  ).

 

Yesterday I watched The Theory of Everything – a movie about the life of Stephen Hawking – Stephen Hawking is proof that one’s physical abilities (or lack thereof) doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with one’s intellectual capacity I liked the movie anyone who loves stories of triumph should definitely watch this movie.
