2018: FINDING MY VOICE
By: Amy
In 2018, I made a goal to be heard more. I think it’s important to use your voice so people know your point of view on things. It’s also important to speak out so people who haven’t found their voice yet can get courage. As someone with a rare disease, it was hard for me to find my voice. But when I spoke up, I learned that people wanted to hear what I had to say. I also learned from others who were speaking out, and I didn’t feel alone anymore. I hope in 2019, I can encourage more people to use their voices, too!
MY PEARLS BLOG
My blog is a place where
I can share my voice.
If you read it
You will have a choice:
To understand
What I have to say
Instead of just
Turning away
You’ll find out
How I really look
In place of pictures
In a medical book.
My words are strong
My words are true
If you listen
It might change you.
I am not just
A rare disease
Won’t you get to
Know me please?
Read my blog
And in exchange,
Change how you see!
See how you change!
