Never stop being you

When I was growing up, every school I went to, I was the only kid in a wheelchair, it never really bothered me because that’s just the way it was and I was always just myself, as time went on and the older I got, I started noticing some kids saw me differently, some saw me as a threat and would start to bully me, others were just afraid of me, and would avoid me, I remember thinking wow, because I was raised to just be myself and respect others, sadly it got worse everyday and everywhere I went, I realized I was no longer a part of society or considered normal, even people I once called my friends turned on me or just simply disappeared, I became on the defense all the time, it was me against the world I developed a lot of trust issues and just didn’t wanna be around anybody, as I moved into my adulthood it was the same but on a much bigger and more dangerous level, big grown men would attempt to intimidate me and challenge me while some elderly women would flirt with me and sexually harass me, it was insane but it did happen and it still does to this day, that’s why nowadays I just go to work and then go straight home but I still like being myself and I like going out and experiencing new things and I will always do that no matter what, never let anyone destroy who you are or prevent you from living the life you want.
