Was not an issue.

it seems to me that the more people talk about their cerebral palsy the more issues they have or the more uptight they are. now i know this is not the case for a lot of people, but i'm sure it is the case for some people.  the issues may come in various forms.

for example, i didn't consider my cerebral palsy an issue because my cerebral palsy wasn't that severe, in fact, it was very mild in the earlier days. my walk was nearly normal, my speech was slightly slurred but very hard to notice, and i held my right arm slightly inward but very usable. i was able to run, ride a two wheel bike, and drive a car.

beside my physical characteristic of cerebral palsy, i was very accepted by my mother, family, the friends i had, and the people around me. i developed a natural ability to give off positive energy regardless to the situation i was in. in short, i attracted people. however, i became a very positive person and never complained. i was not taught to not complain, i just had that nature enter peace. i, to this day, wonder how i deleloped such a talent.

i've had people ask me how i do it, how i attract people, or how i keep it positive when everything all around is negitive. well, its not that i dont see it because, believe me, i do see it. it how you present it, how you carry your self, and how give off your own energy.

remember, how you give off your own energy. now, i know that cerbral palsy as well as other disabilities can be very severe and it can make life very unbearable. it is your choice how you live your life. life is not algebra class where a negitive times a negitive equals a positive. therfore, if you are going to be mad at the world and blame everyone, including yourself, for the disability we have life will be hectic.
