Everyday, I come across people who inspire me and make me realize how grateful and thankful I have to be for everything that God has blessed me with.A few days ago we had a couple that came to the pharmacy. They were deaf and unable to speak and yet they had perfectly normal kids. What amazed me was how normal they were as a family. The kids communicated with their parents in sign language. We also have another couple that frequent the pharmacy often. The husband and wife are both blind, yet they are well educated holding university degrees.They have their own home and lead perfectly normal lives. We view their loss of vision as a disability but for them it isn't. They full of enthusiasm. They travel, they go to the movies etc with their driver. They such an inspiration to me. The only time my heart breaks is when they call the pharmacy to ask us if its going to rain as they wish to make a barbecue. These people have turned their disabilities into a strength and have made a success out of their lives. Yet on the other hand we find individuals who have no disabilities at all, but are unable to make their lives successful. I have come across university students who simply go to campus to have fun, wasting their parents money. I have come across men who are too lazy to work and depend on their wives to support them. Life is what you make of it. You can be poor but still become successful or you can be from a rich home and be unsuccessful. Life is short. So make the best of everyday that goes by. Wake up in the morning with a positive mind set and tell yourself that you are going to achieve your goals for the day. Rise up at the crack of dawn telling yourself that you are going to make a difference in someone else's life. Simple acts of kindness like smiling or listening to someones else's problems all constitutes towards making a difference. Live each day as though its your last. Live happily and forgive easily. Go to bed every night with a clean, happy heart.
