You learn more from the life you have than you probably would have had you had the life you wanted – that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s  6 : 26 PM on day 725 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, publish my Disability of the Day feature,  work,  feed myself a peanut butter sandwich  for breakfast, drink hot chocolate  by myself,   exercise my legs to keep my hamstrings stretched – feed myself rice and curry for lunch and go to physiotherapy – I did great this week too according to my physiotherapist 🙂

This morning after I typed a thirteen letter sentence with both my hands I was so  happy and proud of myself that’s one of the things I love most about having Cerebral Palsy I appreciate the fact that I can see, hear and talk because I know that not everybody can do those things in the same way that I can’t walk most non-disabled people (I’m just telling you what I perceive to be true) don’t have  that attitude of gratitude because they can do things so easily. Are you learning a lot from the life you have even though it’s not exactly the life you would have picked out for yourself?

I LOVE hearing from you feel free to leave a comment below.
