Sometimes it’s the smallest things that take up the most space in your heart – that’s what I keep realizing
It’s 12 : 08 PM on day 2922 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, spent time outside, read a Bible verse and do some work
Today I woke up to read the sweetest message from a friend I’m sure it didn’t cost her anything but it is something I will treasure forever. Let’s all be kind to one another it’s free and it feels oh so good.
My life is someone else’s dream – that’s what I’ve realized.

Recently as I sat under the pretty blue sky my mind travelled to Syria I suddenly saw in my mind infants with bombs failing all around them then I came back to my reality of peace and tranquillity under the blue sky. Sometimes I wonder how all of humanity can share the same sky and yet live in such different realities. #ThinkingOfTheUnRoyalRoyalBabies #LostChildhoods #Syria
If it’s good do it and if it’s bad don’t do it– that’s I believe is one of the most important lessons the Bible tries to teach us.

Recently it occurred to me that most people with good intention are too busy thinking about things and praying about things (I have nothing against praying I pray A LOT but I don’t pray about whether I should do a good thing or not because I know if it’s good God wants me to do it) and not actually doing anything while the people with evil intentions are doing a lot and causing suffering in the process I wish well-intentioned people would have the courage to do more and evil-intentioned people the empathy to do less.
The world simply mirrors back to you how you see yourself– that’s what I’ve realized.

This morning I was thinking about my attitude of years gone by I had a giant chip on my shoulder because I thought the whole world pitied me but now I realize that what I saw in others was a reflection of how I saw myself because the truth is the world didn’t pity me; I pitied me I pitied my fragile body and the words that didn’t come out fluently but the moment I stopped seeing myself as somehow broken and less than and the moment I stopped making Cerebral Palsy the centre of my universe I saw something different in most people’s eyes I saw love and sometimes even admiration (though I still don’t get what there is to admire I’m just me doing what I do that hardly deserves a medal) now I hardly mention that I have Cerebral Palsy because it has no bearing on most of the things I do in life. I will always have Cerebral Palsy but I am determined that Cerebral Palsy will NEVER EVER have me!
