Just thought we’d share this amazing video from Aimee Mullins, an actress, model, athlete, and speaker. She’s as gorgeous as she is brilliant and you’d never guess that she was once called “disabled”. Born without shinbones she had her legs amputated below the knee when she was 1-year old. But that didn’t stop her one bit.
I think the greatest adversity that we’ve created for ourselves is this idea of normalcy. Now, who’s normal? There’s no normal. There’s common. There’s typical. There’s no normal. And would you want to meet that poor, beige person if they existed? I don’t think so. If we can change this paradigm from one of achieving normalcy to one of possibility, or potency, to be even a little bit more dangerous, we can release the power of so many more children, and invite them to engage their rare and valuable abilities with the community.
Check out the video and I know you’ll be inspired. And like so many TED talks before, you may shed a tear

Hi young lady,

It’s true! Without such a conquering spirit we are all disabled. It takes such able people as Aimee and Sean to remind us of our inner potential.
Than you Aimee for an uplifting and truthful story. Thank you for your choice to give of yourself to all of us. Bless you Linda
What a beautiful story! I have had to deal with some adversitys and have felt overwhelmed with them. listening to you speak as opened a very special feeling inside of me. I will look at adversity as a learning tool, and I will meet it head on. It is about change. and it is about treating each other equal. Blessings to you Aimee. And thank you so much for teaching me. Gods blessings be with you!
Thank you! I have faced the stigma of mental disabilities and break downs. I too beleive in the abilities not the dis-abilities of each person. I recently had a book published about facing stigma and helping others to do like wise. Please read, “The Cross and the Psychiatrist” Terry Dorn
