When people look at my daughter, they see someone who is different, a teenager holding her parent’s hand, a young girl who seems “slower” (to be polite….). A teenager carrying a doll around…..
Looking at my daughter now, I am reminded of a little girl who wanted to walk so badly that over 13 months (March 2001 to March 2002) she tried to walk every single day… On average a couple of times per hour for 10 to 12 hours a day… Do the math, a small 3 year old girl, fell at least 8,000 times but pulled herself back-up and tried again!
I don’t care what the outside world think….. ok, that’s not true, I do care! I hope the whole world could see that she is my hero, my personal life coach, that she has overcome so much in her life …..
A 3 year old taught me that if I wanted something bad enough I should keep trying!
She taught me that complaining and quitting would never get me there….. but that pulling myself back-up and trying again would.
How about you? Will you fall and get yourself back-up 8,000 times to achieve your goal???
