Chapter 1: I am born.
So that's it the end of what I knew of my life but in itself, a new life born. I am told I have to get an education, get a job, a career, a family, a house and these things will make me happy. Why? I have realised that we are all told and guided what to do and we lose out on one of the greatest gifts God gave us, freedom. Without our freedom, who are we? Slaves to the corporate world? Feeding us crap of what we need? We need nothing. My intentions right now at this moment in time are to live... just live. Live every second like its a year.
A boy called Thomas, who went to my school, died last year, I never got to meet him. He suffered from brittle bone disease and Spina Bifida. We raised money at our formal to give to two charities that deal with these illnesses. His Mother talked to us, and my heart reached out to her. I don't know what to say, I am speechless.
After, I am approached by a familiar face, a woman who has helped me so much in the past year who runs the Spina Bifida Association. And I feel now that this is what I want to do now, give back by volunteering. I don't know how to explain it but it's on my heart. Thomas's Mother talked about reaching dreams... My dream is to make a dream happen.
