What If For One Day I Felt Looked Up To?
It’s a post I never thought I’d write about. Because at 4’11 I am always looking UP at my friends, heroes aka my parents and those occasional celebrity icons. Also, I’ve figured talking to kids who ask questions or point would be the end of the story. I kinda put it as a joke because […]

A Real Life What Would You Do!
Let me tell you a little story! As you may know I rollerblade around public transportation on crutches and one leg. What you may not know is that 9/10 times I jump on a subway that’s crowded or a bus that is crowded, everyone looks dumbfounded as to what to do if they should give […]

Are the Disabled a Protected Community ?
Legally in the United States of America, the disabled community is a protected class. Yet in the eyes of rising crime? I feel that the average criminal would not care if you are disabled or not. After all, a Mayor’s aide in NYC was robbed at gunpoint, yes gunpoint! (https://www.fox5ny.com/news/mayor-adams-aide-robbed-at-gunpoint) Criminals are becoming more brazen […]

When It Comes to Health, Adapt to Time As A Construct

Americana Is What We Yearn For, Will We Get There Again?
Textbooks and television can’t bring us a great vision right now in America. No matter the commercials we may see about how we are coming back as a country, it will never truly help us achieve Americana. And maybe that’s ok. Maybe as we scroll our phones a dose of reality this week is what […]

We Must Stop Sitting on Our Hands After the Tragedy in Uvalde, Texas
Most people would automatically assume I will now advocate for gun control because the only way we sit on our hands is not acting on gun control , right? Absolutely wrong. Sure , limiting AR-15’s to strictly active military personnel, yes ACTIVE ONLY, would help. But, so many sit on their hands in so many […]
