Romance in the chair
If I have a van and a power chair like that, I'd be working like a regular employee in any company.

Empowering people with disabilities
On July 24, 2010, BloggersUnite is asking bloggers and writers around the world to use their voices to raise awareness about empowering people with disabilities. Participating is easy. Simply share a story about living with a disability, working to empower people with disabilities, or supporting an organization that empowers people with disabilities. On the event page, you will find links to resources like events, organizations, articles, badges and more. We encourage you to get involved in your community by participating in a local event, or supporting an organization that empowers people with disabilities by volunteering or helping them raise funds. Then, write about it!

5 Inspiring stories you should know about
Five inspiring stories I’ve featured on both here and my other blog (and some from a friend’s) that you might have missed.
The woman who touched the world
Joni Ericson Tada - the quadriplegic
woman who rose above the tragedy that rendered her paralyzed for life. She can only move her head but she’s starred in a movie, she paints, has her own albums and married.
Nick Vujicic – Get back up
The incredible story (with a video) of a man born without limbs.
This will make you cry and truly inspire you. After seeing this, you'll realize how blessed you are.
The blind who led the blind
Ann Sullian – the woman behind Helen Keller.
Ann too suffered from a sight disability nevertheless, under her tutelage, she mentored one of the most amazing and remembered woman in history.
Wheelchair Bodybuilding: Rich Knapp
A competitive bodybuilder
in a wheelchair. Read his story and be motivated!
Graduate speech to remember Eric Duquette
Diagnosed with autism
and learned to talk
only when he was five
but graduated Salutatorian
in his high school class.
Check them out and if these stories do not touch and encourage you at all, I don’t know what else would.
