I would like to tell you my story. At six months old I was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. The doctor informed my parents about a special “home” that could take care of me. I probably would never recognize anybody, talk or even hold my head… they were to concentrate on my two teenage brothers. But my family did not follow his advice. They worked with me, fussed over my simple achievements and encouraged me never to give up. My brothers showed me off with pride…Yes, there are many things that I will never be able to do. My speech is not always clear, my arms tend to have a mind of their own and yes, Life can be hard but if you give it your best you will be surprised with what you may achieve. Everybody is different! Even people without disabilities can’t do everything. So, I look for what I am good at and make the best of it.I guess it is easier to just use the disability as an excuse and not to try to achieve. But that is not how to LIVE LIFE, that is to just exist. I don’t expect to be treated differently. Actually I DON’T WANT to be treated differently. I had to fight for the right to be allowed to attend regular classes. Why? I do not think with my legs! But when I went on stage to get my “real” high school diploma all those months of struggle became history.Even though I have a disability it often makes it hard to do things on my own my friends and family help me understand that I can do anything I set my mind to, including my faith . My faith in god has always helped me realize that I am normal although I talk funny. When I have a day where my body tends to have a mind of its own moving fast I like to think of it as dance moves that come natural . People with disabilities deserve to be allowed to achieve their best like anybody else, whatever that might be. But… like everybody else they must earn rights and respect! Do not give up. Look for the rainbow after every storm! Make the best of your LIFE!

”Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. -Mother Teresa”. I wish there were ways to help everyone that I meet; you can’t work through no-matter how much you think you have moved on. People grief differently, we need to have somebody to talk to. But I have learned that sometimes you just give someone a smile and the love will make help more than anything else.

”No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. -Aesop”
Kindness is important!  Today we don’t think about this; to help someone who is in need; all you need to do is let them know that you are there for them whenever.   And also that they are loved.

Have you ever loved someone so much it hurts?
Love can be hard sometimes, but most of the time
Love is one of thing that can get through the hardest times.
This life can get so busy
but let’s remember to always show loved ones;
how much they are loved!

Life is full of differences,  everyone is created difficulty!  Then why are we all afraid of differences.   I have a disability which I didn’t care that I am different.   I know it’s not always easy to be the one always left out because people don’t think we all have that in common; but if people could see that we are all different , it would make life so much easier if we don’t understand that being is amazing.  So how can we all work together?

”Disability is the consequence of an impairment that may be physical, cognitive, mental, sensory, emotional, developmental, or some combination of these. A disability may be present from birth, or occur during a person’s lifetime.”  You might be wondering how I can talk about these two very different topics in one blog.  Well I think that depression is also a kind of disability;  there are so many different kinds that we realized it sometimes. We all have some kind of disability;  we need people around us who can support and love us the way we are.  Life of today wants us to believe that being different is bad as if something is wrong with you.   Have you ever thought about what being different means to you or maybe even to everyone ?  Does it mean having a disability or that you think differently from your friends?   Well here is what I think about disabilities if we are different from each other and having a disability means being disabled then doesn’t that mean we all have some kind of disability!

This weekend I was in Long Beach, California, for Ms. Wheelchair American 2015.  It’s a comparison to get women in wheelchairs to that do amazing things even though other people may think that just because people use wheelchairs that they can not have a normal life; they are in chairs does not mean that they can’t have a great life,  Well it was more for other people that don’t see a disability as normal.   This comparison is not about how they look it’s more about what they do.  Imagine you were able to walk and do everything in your daily life without needing help.   Having the doctor says that you can’t walk again for some of the woman,  that is what they went through that;  but now they did the Ms. Wheelchair pageant.   It was my second time to be apart of this amazing event;  the first time I went as Ms. Wheelchair Colorado 2010.  Let me just say that week was the best week,  to have a week where they are people who going through the same things as you felt awesome.   I learned so much about myself too.  Now I am the coordinator for Ms. Wheelchair Colorado;  this organization is so amazing.   I know I’m a depression writer;  now I am going to be writing about both topics,  they do both need are important to me.

Love in never changing

Love is everything

Love is sadness

Love is happiest

Love is always around you

Love might not always be felt,

But it’s everywhere we go!

”’Throughout life you will meet one person who is unlike any other. You could talk to this person for hours and never get bored. You could tell them anything and they would never judge you. This person is your soul mate, your best friend. Don’t ever let them go.”

”Love is never lost. If not reciprocated it will flow back and soften and purify the heart. -Washington Irving”

This is so true love is not something that you can ever lose no-matter if someone moves away!   Everything can change but love is the one thing that never changes!

This life is meant to be with others,  supporting,  loving and more.   We all want and need to have the feeling of being loved so much that nothing else matters!   Do you have that feeling?     Family is not only the people who have same name as you, family can also be the people who you are close to.   We were made to need to have love in our lives.  Happiness comes from love and knowing that you have all you need!  Think of your best friends;  what do they to let you know that if you need them,  they are going to be there for you?   How can you not say that is happiness!

What or who makes you happy?
Is it what you do?

Is it a place your home?

Your family and friends?
Are they always there when you need comfort?
Do you have a great place where you can go to have some time for yourself?
How do you get to your happy place,  is it by writing or talking to a loved one?

Do let sadness get you find your own way to overcome the hard times!

”Never let your tears and sensitivity blind you. if someone hurt you, they showed you who they are. Stay strong and keep moving.”.  Don’t let others bring you down, never try to be someone you are not.   Always show your true self!

1; Try to think of something that brings you happiness.
2; Go for a walk be in nature.

3; Give your time to someone who is in-need.
4;   Think about good memories.
5;  always love others!

Who is your best friend and why?  Is it because you have lots in common or is it that your best friend friend is always there when needed?   Best friends know when something is not going right in your world,  sometimes even before you tell them.   Someone who always has your back when life gets to hard for you to handle on your own.  Even though we think we can live life on own we can’t there are some time that we all will need to have somebody to talk to.  Having a friend like that is important!

“What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose for all that we deeply love becomes a part of us.”~ Helen Keller

There could never be enough love! This world is hurting for more love,  more comfort and hope!

Present-moment living, getting in touch with your ”now,” is at the heart of effective living. When you think about it, there really is no other moment you can live. Now is all there is, and the future is just another present moment to live when it arrives. One thing is certain, you cannot live it until it does appear.

~ Wayne Dyer

”If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, then you never will change the outcome. -Michael Jordan”

”The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.”

Love is living, Love is necessary for happiness. The world needs more love!

”It is not how much you do, but how much love you put into the doing that matters. – Mother Teresa”

Sometimes you just need to be loved.
With out knowing why or how
you just would like someone to be there for you.
This is not too much to ask for,
life can get a little lonely and hard at times.
So let us always be willing to give love!

”We all have had thought, if we were to take time to ourselves it’s bad.  It’s not,  we all sometimes need to have time for ourselves.   It’s part of life to want to never stop doing things for others.   But really if you are not happy you can’t be a support to someone who really needs you!’

”The world needs more love.  The world is full lonely hurt people,who do not feel love.  Don’t think that they are worth it!

Wrong,  everyone should not feel like they don’t matter.  Each person is special Needed !”

”There is something in doing something special for someone else,  that just makes you want to jump for joy!   Why doesn’t everyone see how much joy you can get just from doing something kind of a loved one?”

”Never be ashamed of who you are. You have to accept that not everyone is going to love you back, that’s why it’s most important to love yourself. It’s not about being what everyone wants you to be, it’s about being yourself and finding someone who truly loves you for what you are. The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are and not who people think you are. If you always accept and be comfortable for your flaws, no one can ever use them against you. So don’t change just to please someone. Just be simple, original and unique in your own way.–”

Love yourself it’s most important important!  Each of us has a reason for living;  the way we do.   Hold love high and know that you are important!

Life is not always easy there will be times in everyone’s life;  that one day we think negatively its just the way life is.   Things may change in life that we don’t think we can fix this time in your life, you will get through this season.   Different season in your life can get stronger to help you thought the negative thoughts.

We have things that we would like to change about ourselves; may be it’s the way you are with others;  but you are who you are, Important.

””Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.” – Ella Fitzgerald ”  In life we should never give up on a dream; we all have something that we know it is what we are meant to do in our lifetime.   So just keep on going you can get there!

”Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. – Albus Dumbledore”’

”Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, It is about learning to dance in the rain.”

‘A secret to happiness is letting every situation be what it is instead of what you think it should be, and then making the best of it. ”

One of the greatest achievements in life is understanding that everything happens for a reason;  the little moments can bring you so much joy.  When times get hard,  think of happy moments.

“The world s full of amazing people, people who want to take care of others. Although there are people who have no one why? Can’t we work together for those who need love? Love is the key to happiness!”

”Everything has a reason, hard times and good times. Even though the confusing days life is a journey for each of us. We all have our ways to get through the hard. So let’s give Love to everyone We can help!”

”Thinking, wondering. Wishing there was a way things, didn’t have change. Being thankful for things, time changing, can be so hard, but change can be good. Just got to let go.”

”A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot and realize how blessed you are”.
”Smile, even if it’s fake. Laugh, even if you hurt. Don’t let anyone get to you, you’re beautiful regardless of what anyone says to you.”

Dream big don’t want you can’t be good enough for what you dream.  Life is not always as easy as we would like it. Love like it is the way to a great life;  because when we have love nothing else matters!

Its so sad to think how many people in this life are hurting, broken in some way. When did we get so sad yes everyone has hard times we all go through it, life is meant to be shared in everything hard times and good. How can we care for others more? Love is missing from people’s lifestyles! Its important for everyone to feel loved!

Have you ever loved someone so much it hurts?

Love can be hard sometimes, but most of the time

Love is one of thing that can get through the hardest times.

This life can get so busy

but let’s remember to always show loved ones;

how much they are loved!

To Mom,

You are Strong.

The strongest women

I know!

Always there

knowing what it means to

love someone else more than yourself.

I am very happy, grateful you are mine!

I love you always My mom!

Time can make people charges

Everyday the world changes

That is just the way life goes

We should be thankful for each day

and more importantly we should

give more of ourselves to helping others!

Always tell your loved ones

how much they are loved!

”Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right and forget about the ones who don’t.”
”’If you really want to live your life to the fullest and realize your greatest potential, you must be willing to run the risk of making some people mad. People may not like what you do, people may not like how you do it, but these people are not living your life. You are!
—Iyanla Vanzant.”

Let’s enjoy life for what we have, who we are.   Forget the negative things people might say to bring  you down!

Hugs are one way
to help someone feel loved.
Its can sometimes be better than
talking it out for the time being
sometimes you don’t know how to get out
what is hurting you.
Life moments can sometimes be to hard to talk about;
at first making it hard to talk about it with a loved one.
So a little hug can be the only thing that in that moment
can give someone comfort.

How do you view yourself?
How do you think others view you?
What do you think it more important?
Its important to be comfortable with who you are,
Each of us is unique!
We each has a reason to why we are the way we are.
We were created to have differences
so who you are is just the way
You are meant to be!
Unique, amazing, loved!
Never change who you are!
You are Loved!

Love is light. Happiness can be fully when we are getting the love that is needed!

Have you ever loved someone so much it hurts?
Love can be hard sometimes, but most of the time
Love is one of thing that can get through the hardest times.

we wish we could do more
We wish came help others more
We see so much hurt in people.
Why?
We can not see the love
Its not supposed to hard
to see love.
But we hid as if giving
Love is hard
But helping and
showing love is so easy!

Looking at people
Seeing how each of us
has some kind of a
Disability.
We all are different!
It doesn’t matter
what we look look or how we live
each of us has need;
wanted, loves.
Now days we think 
that people who look
different from us are
weird but if you look deep enough,
you will see we are are different.
