Different Ability

Disabled Crippled No, that is not me I am totally capable Only I do things differently I may have wheels And yet I am not confined I choose not to use words That restrict and define I do not consider myself disabled Or living with a handicap Even though sometimes things are difficult I quickly adapt I can choose to complain about my situation But I’d rather be happy, educate and advocate So many are uneducated about my community So getting the word out this simply can not wait Written on Thursday, January 20, 2011 International Day of Acceptance Location: http://www.dayofacceptance.com
