it could happen to you
in a moment
your life has been forever changed
altered forever rearranged
your life will never ever be the same
a lovin' God in Heaven isn't to blame
it could happen to you
in an instant
one minute you are fine, the next--
reasons behind it are complex
we may not ever fully understand
the life before us, why we were dealt this hand
it could happen to you
in the blink of an eye
a normal life is history
get used to disability
welcome to it--this is your brave new world
so what you don't like it, it's where you've been hurled
it could happen to you
in the next second
show some compassion, if you dare
'cause it could be you sittin' there
brain damaged retarded burned perhaps can't walk
or maybe you're blind deaf fat maybe can't talk
it could happen to you
bam--baby it's your turn
'cause it happened to me--i know
it happened many years ago
can't change it--so i go through life head held high
watch what i can do--given a chance, i'll fly!

Your words are so true! Good job. You do lknow that our God is a healing God. Maybe by your healing it will bring others to see the power and love of our awesome God. He could use your disability in a mighty way. Write me back and let me know what you think. God bless!
Love,

Karla,
This is wonderful write.
People need to stop and think what if it were them in the other seat?
It's not how we look it is what is inside of us all.

It did happen to me in the short term, I broke my pelvis in 3 places way back in the '80's, was on crutches for 3 months...a lesson well-learned, as your piece so succinctly says, Karla, it could happen to any of us, indeed. (((Hugs))) to you, dear soul!! :)
Yankee Doodle Daddy is a historical Appalachian Family Saga. The story follows a mother's reckoning as she struggles to survive and keep her four daughters alive.

It's my belief,
That there is no fool,
Like the fool who choses to look through
the eyes of ignorance.
Bravo...
