Challenged

[Cindy Scanlon]

Received this poem in email today and wanted to share:
Challenged!

Some say I am disabled,
but you know that isn't true.
I simply have a challenge
A little different from you.

My sight inconvenience, has taught me
Things they could not know.
Each obstacle is a victory
Enabling me to grow.

I'm not really any different,
I cry, I laugh, I snore.
I don't want to be treated
As if I'm not a person anymore.

Out of good intentions,
People are afraid to let me try.
But sometimes I have to fall.
And sometimes I need to cry.

God gives me strength and dignity,
And the courage to be all I can be.
For He doesn't see me as disabled,
He just sees me as ME..

Written by Leslie W. Ortega, a person with MS
