March 25th is known as Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day; it is a day that hits close to home for me because this is something that has affected my personal life and is an aspect of myself that I have slowly learned to cherish. On this day, I am always reminded of how far life has taken me and how many struggles God has carried me through; it helps me to remain hopeful for the future.  Generally speaking, I feel society does not think highly enough of those with disabilities. Today, I would like to focus my attention on continuing to spread cerebral palsy awareness by dispelling five common myths about those who live with cerebral palsy.

NE, Suite 56-496, Atlanta, GA 30324 Anger is an emotion that we as humans all experience at some point of our lives; it is one that has the potential to be channeled in a positive manner, but so often destroys the mind because it is not dealt with properly. The two questions I am answering in this week’s blog post are: “What makes me angry?” and “How do I deal with it?” I feel that I’m not a perfect example, as I’m still progressing in my battle with emotions, but I do hope to provide some helpful and hopeful insight to young adults who also struggle by sharing what I’ve learned so far.   I have narrowed my list of what angers me into four broad areas and the first of those is constantly having to battle my internalized negative thinking that I know feeds into my low self confidence. I know that this issue is common among those with ...
