Dating While Differenly Abled

I am in my mid 20's now so I think its appropriate to talk about dating. I always get so nervous to breach the topic because I feel like no one will understand, but we live in a world with internet. This means that millions of people have access to this post. Its not about understanding anymore. The focus is exposure and education. I don't know what I am looking for out of this, but I do think that the content of this post is interesting. I just have a few questions that need answers. To start, What do people think about dating someone with a differing level of or limited ability? Next, What role does social media play in all of this? Then, for those who date online, how much disclosure is necessary at the onset? To follow, do people have a right to put disclosure on a need to know basis? Finally, if it matters to you, why does it matter? I really want to know what people think. I have some great things coming in the near future. Lets start the conversation. Do not fee...

Be Limitless

Just viewed the Christmas Day service live online from my from my home church in GA and the message was... Don't be afraid of who you are, Embrace how God made you, and live without limits because like Rudolph the Red nose reindeer you may be teased and talked about, but then you are called to save the day doing something that only you can do, it its you that will go down in history. This message hit home with me because I am unique among those that know me. I have mild Cere bral Palsy, I use assistive technology to walk and get around,I AM BLACK, well traveled, a Latin honor graduate of the  ‪#‎ 1HBCU‬  Spelman College, A Teach for America Alum, a first Generation College student, and now I am a law student. I embrace all the aspects of who I am. I am God's child who is blessed and highly favored. There have been many people who do not think I should be pursuing the path that I am on. They are afraid that it is too much for me to handle, or that I won't ever make it to th...

I AM THIRSTY... Water gives me Strength

LIVING WATER There was this little seed And in a garden it was sowed It had the warmth of the sun But it needed water to grow. Now this very seed was watered By the raindrops that fell from the sky It was even given water By many people who walked by. Even though it was given plenty of water This kind of water was never enough For you see this seed's heart was dry And it was also very tough. Now one day a stranger walked by And poured a different kind of water on top This seed was so excited That it absorbed every last drop. For the water this stranger gave Was not of an ordinary kind It didn't cost the seed a thing Not even one thin dime. This water was living water That Christ gave to the women at the well This water was the gift of eternal life And this water is free and not for sale. This poem is an open invitation A gift from God to you from me You are a seed that needs this living water And you can have life with Christ in eternity. "For God so loved the world, tha...
