We Are Fragile Humans

Thank you to the people in my life who love, care, and worry about me.  Thank you to the people who pick me up off the floor -- literally and figuratively.  To the people who hug me and wipe the tears from my face.  I am fragile.  To the people I inspire and motivate, thank you for without you I would not be inspiring and I love, and care, and worry about all of you.  I will pick you up off of the literal and figurative floor.  I will wipe the tears from your face and hug you.  You are fragile.  We are all fragile. 

       I am not fragile because I am disabled; I am fragile because I am human.  We can not be strong minded, strong willed, and just plain strong all the time.  We must cry, be angry, get frustrated', feel sad.  We are all disabled in one way or another, and as unique humans with disabilities we come with emotions.  

       We are all fragile.  We must all have people who can wipe our tears.  Strength cannot be with us all the time, but God can!

       

2 Corinthians 5:17English Standard Version (ESV)

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.[a] The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

Psalm 23:1-6English Standard Version (ESV)

The Lord Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2     He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.[a]
3     He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness[b]
    for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,[c]
    I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
    your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
6 Surely[d] goodness and mercy[e] shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell[f] in the house of the Lord
    forever.[g]

Revelation 1:8English Standard Version (ESV)
