You are….you
You are….you….
You are not less than you….because of your illness
You are not less than you….because of your disability
You are not less than you… because you use a wheelchair
You are not less than you….because you are bedbound
You are not less than you….because you are dependent
You are not less than you….because you are not able to walk
You are not less than you….because you are not able to do activities on your own
You are not less than you….because you are not able to work
You are not less than you….because you are not able to continue the job
You are not less than you….because you are not able to study
You are not less than you….because you are not able to continue the education
You are not less than you….because you are sitting idle at your home
You are not less than you….because you are not supporting your family financially
Remember,
You are….you
You are….you….
With or without disability
Embrace the strength of your will power
You are more than….your illness
You are more than….your disability
You are more than….what do you think about yourself
Your disability shouldn't stop you from what you want to become
Your disability shouldn't stop you from what you want to achieve
You can defeat your disability
You can defeat your fate
Nothing will stop you to reach and succeed in your life
Your abilities with disability are an inspiration for us always
You are….you
You are….you….
You are Bigger….Stronger….Powerful….than your disability
Look at your strengths, not your weakness
Identify your strengths, act accordingly
Acknowledge you have this illness
Start accepting it and moving on…
Learn how to live with disability
Learn how to be mindful
Learn how to seek help whenever, wherever requires
Learn how to identify your negative thoughts
Learn how to distract your negative thoughts
Be empathetic to yourself
It's okay to be not okay at times…
You are loved as how you are
You are beautiful as how you are…
We all are with you
We all are together in this battle…
You are worthy of love
You are worthy of care
You are worthy of your rights…
We need your love,
We need your care,
We need your presence,
We need your participation…
You are….you
You are….you….
