Specially Abled
I believe that differently-abled people are very special. They were created by God uniquely, apart from others because they have an important mission in the world and that is to bring hope in someone else life. I remember during one of our charity work in Marikina, I’ve met a special man with cerebral palsy. His name was Gerry. He told me how he met his better half through that institution. She was a volunteer there and amidst the geographical, physical and mental differences, love budded and blossomed into a wonderful love story. During that time I was so broken hearted because my then boyfriend cheated on me. I lost hope that I’d still find God’s best for me until I’ve heard Gerry and Lena’s story. And of course you all know that I’ve met and married the man that God specially chose for me. I prayed and never gave up on love just like Gerry and Lena advised to me. I refuse to call people like Gerry differently-abled from then on, I prefer calling them specially-abled persons.
