In the midst of cleaning this morning, I happened to see a folder on the shelf. I decided to open it up and take a look. What I found left me in pleasant amazement. I found old poems from so many years ago. I was reminded me of what worries and fears I had at the time. I got a chance to reflect on how much I have accomplished. I realized God has been very good to me. He still is. So much has changed in seven plus years. I am a college graduate. I am a world traveler. I am loved. I am a follower of CHRIST!
I once wrote a poem about my Cerebral Palsy. I wondered if my CP was a blessing or a curse. I still pose that question to myself sometimes, but it has for the most part, it has been a blessing.
For the most part, the only one who notices my Cerebral Palsy, is me! I still have days where I have fear, but they get fewer and fewer.
Someone told me recently that I need to recognize the accomplishments, and how far I have come. Today, I will do just that!
I have so much more I want to accomplish, and I will! If it has to be done with one small step at a time, so be it. I have a hard time being nice to myself. Today I will say to myself: Well done, my friend!
Any accomplishments, friends, you need to acknowledge today? Would love to hear!

You are an inspiration!
