Monday Motivation.. You have to be impacted by something To make a difference a take a lead.. Growing up with a disability.. being a girl especially for many years I was very shy and didn't have a voice.. I had trouble accepting my disability as a teenager my disability kept my out of a lot of activities especially in school Isolation has develop over time which also has an impact on my social and communication skills today.. I appreciate those who opens up their doors to get to know me as it's not always easy for me to open up My confidence limited me from shinning in many areas I doubt myself many times before I believe in myself.. At times I still face with these issues .. I grow over my time in college I gain confidence in my academics and so much more I gain friendships I gain acceptance. I was very involved on campus.. I gain a community that i never had until this day ...
