A Girl After My Heart

If you don't already know, I'm a huge fan of any kind of art.  While I was perusing the web today, I found this and wanted to share it with you.  I hope that you enjoy it.

Have a great weekend!

Finding Inspiration

Here’s another article I hope my readers find inspiring.  Let’s give our best as she prepares to reach her ultimate goal at the Paralympic Games this summer.  Kudos to this young woman who is following her dreams so wholeheartedly!

On a side note, I won’t be blogging for two weeks as I’ll be off on a late spring/early summer jaunt.  I’ll be back, though, ready to continue my Journey of Hope.  Until then—Ta-Ta!

Sibling Love

I found a wonderful letter online, posted by a young woman whose older brother has Cerebral Palsy.  It shows the true depth of meaning for those who are surrounded by disability, and what profound impact it has on them.

Follow-Up Time

Hi All,

This is the follow-up from a previous blog.  These parent’s love and pride are so evident in their son’s abilities that it is truly heartwarming.   I hope you all enjoy!

Have a beautiful weekend, everyone!

End Your Friday With Some Comic Relief

Hey All,

I hope your week was as good as mine.  Fall, my favorite season, definitely made its appearance this week, so Happy Fall. 

I came upon video today that is both hilarious and thought provoking.  I think I posted one of his videos before, but Zach Anner is one of the funniest people I've seen for a long time.  So, hopefully, you'll enjoy him as much as I do.

Enjoy this beautiful weekend, all!

Overcoming the Odds

I came upon this article and wanted to post it.  I so admire this young man’s tenacity of spirit that I felt compelled to post it for this week’s blog.   It is another reminder that with a little Hope and determination, anything is possible!

Have a great weekend, everyone.

Seasonal Spirit

I just came upon this article and had to post it.  To me, seeing the smile on this young boy’s face is more than words could ever express!  I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did.  It reminds me of the true meaning of Christmas.

Have a good weekend, all!

I read a very inspirational article and I would like to share it with you.   Today, I completed a final, so I’m a little brain dead.  As always, I hope you enjoy this article and have a fabulous weekend!

Teddy

I just read the article and viewed this short film created by parents who have two children; one has Cerebral Palsy and the other does not.  I was captivated, not only by the siblings love for one another, by her ultimate acceptance of him, and it made me tear up.  I hope you as inspired as I am every time I see this.

Josh Blue

Hi All,

Today, I'm posting a clip of one of my favorite comics, Josh Blue, who has CP also.  If you haven't heard of him, there's a myriad of his videos on YouTube.  I just chose a cleaner, rated-G clip, which is hard to accomplish, I might add :)  At any rate, hope you enjoy!
