putting my feelings in writing
If I Could Walk

Because I can't walk I learned to deal with pain.
If I could walk. would my body still hurt?
I love with my whole heart--unconditionally.
If I could walk. Would my kids respect me more?
Would my kids love me more if they didn't have to take care of me?
If I could walk would I be happier?
Would my kids be happier if they had a NORMAL mom?
If I could walk what would be different?
Would I be a better person?
If I could walk would I be a better mother?
If I could walk would I still have the same fears?
Would I've found lasting romantic love?

I am proud of who I am--Cerebral Palsy and all.
I would hope I'd still love as deeply as I do.
My Children are my greatest achievement.
I am as NORMAL as God wanted me to be.
I have no right to question or doubt.
I am me and this is the way I am supposed to be.

Life is a gift. We must learn to make the best of it.
We're all only human; sometimes we make the wrong choices.
Forgiveness, is also one of God's amazing gifts--all we need to do is ask.
In my heart; I carry the Lord forever.
So, someday--I will walk, but until that amazing day;
I am who I am for a reason.
I accept the challenges I've been given as a test I am worthy of his everlasting love for me.
