Don't Let Anyone Decide Who You Are!

"Our destiny is not written for us its, written by us'' Barack Obama. No one in this entire world except for you knows what you want, knows whats best for you. You as a whole you are complete that way. You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. First step is understanding who you are, the you that you are what is it? In most cases we are defined by the way we look, for example being disabled (blind, crippled in anyway etc). People tend to choose defining us by our in-capabilities and disability as if being disabled means you are unable... But it now depends on you, do you want the"labelling"to define who you really are for the rest of your life, is that what you want to be? You cannot change who you are but you can change what you do. I will give an example of myself, this one time when i was in high school i once landed in a class which was regarded as the last class. There was even a teacher who was female who always called us names calling us "dullies''. She would tell us we were coming to school for nothing and would go on to say she would not teach us as we were going to remain"dullies'' for the rest of our lives but for her she would get her salary every month end. But let me tell you something, out of the dully class which consisted of 40-42 pupils only 1/10 did not make it the rest 36 made it and are now doing big, smelling success on their way. What am saying is that, this dully class did not allow the labelling they got to reduce them or define who they were.... Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising each time we fall. Decide for yourself who you are but most importantly who you want to be, not what others want you to be.
