Has there been a time in your life where someone would ask everybody to clap their hands and you couldn't? 

Oh my goodness YES!! Basically every week. Sometimes it's awkward being the only one not clapping. Not because I can't but because some people don't really know that I truly can't. So I assume the worst in what they are thinking. I know I shouldn't assume but I do. Then again it's an opportunity to share my story if they would ask. :) There are times where I wish I could clap but He reminds me that just because I can't really "clap" He provides other ways to do so. It may not be the same but hey He always provides a way.

Is it hard for you to ask for help?

Well it depends. I have my good days and my bad days. For the longest time I found it to be very hard for me to ask for help. Mainly because I wanted to prove people wrong and show them that I can do it all by myself. Through most of my life I learned things on my own that seem impossible to do. At times I would get frustrated when I couldn't do it the first few times. But as time passed I would eventually learn how to do it. It may not get done the way others would get it done but it did. It was just done a different way. My way so to speak. 

Now the last few months He (meaning God) has been teaching me that its OKAY to ask for help once in awhile. Or let others help when they offer. He is also teaching me to let the pride go and be humble. To be honest I was like I don't have pride I can do it myself.  Which was the pride in me talking.  Its not about if I can or can't do something on my own. Its about letting others in to help and get things done as a team. 

So all in all its getting easier to ask for help when I really need it. There is still A LOT of work to be done with me to completely get better at letting/asking others for help.

If people with one arm go to get their nails done, do they pay half price?

Well in the beginning I use to pay full price. Then I got smart and just asked them how much it will cost to get just one hand done. Yes they will look all confused at first but realize that I am serious. They said yes. Although some other places will try to rip you off and charge you 75-90%. So before I ask I look at how much the full set is. If they try to say a higher price then half I ask them why because I'm only getting one hand done. If other places say no I say ok thank you and walk out.

Its not that I'm being cheap. I just don't see why I should pay full price if i'm only getting half done.  Just saying….. :)

Till next time
