NuVision for a NuDay: I am.

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

I am.

I am who God says I am.

And I agree with God.

So often, others will try to define me.

But I reject their labels.

I refuse to let others tell me who I am, what I should be doing, and where I'm going to go.

God chooses the plans for my life.

And the truth is that I have decided to agree with God on His plans.

Thank you Lord for my status, definition, and identity in you.

Thank you Lord for the plan.

The Reason Why I Blog

NuVision for a NuDay gives me the opportunity to share with others what I experience as I travel through this life as a blind woman. I realize that most people have never even had one conversation with someone that's blind. So, this blog gives me the opportunity to shed light on a world that most sighted individuals are blind to ever having the opportunity to see. Therefore, I continue to blog about my experiences as a blind woman so that I can be a light in a dark place. As long as I feel that check in my spirit, I will continue to shine a spotlight in the world of a woman whose lights have been unplugged indefinitely, with the hope that someone will be more inclined to understand the world of a blind person. Perhaps my blog will decrease discrimination, increase respect, and shatter stereotypes. (I hope I'm not just a dreamer.)

What a beautiful quote!

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens
us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing
small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest
the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Marianne Williamson
