Don’t Tell Me You Can’t, Show Me How You Will

Living with a disability is not easy, even in today’s society though we have come a long way since the days of Helen Keller, but that is not to say obstacles aren’t placed in the way, obstacles that are often made by society not our disabilities, but this is about motivation. Haberdashery Girma was the first blind/deaf person to graduate from Harvard Law School, and she has gone on to be a Disability/Advocacy Lawyer so instead of telling me you can’t show me how you will.

There are every day winners even if they don´t have a profesional title. Any person who overcomes a disability to become a better human being should be in a hall of fame.
