So driving past the express, we came across a couple of people begging, most of whom were "disabled" so I guess they naturally resorted to begging.
In sympathy we gave them alms... but just then Helen Keller (the blind and very successful lady) crossed my mind, how that she was disabled and yet very able.
I remembered how she was once asked what was worse than blindness?
And she replied "having eyes without a vision"
In the same vein I ask? What is worse that deafness? Perhaps, having the ability to hear but not understand (these are the type of people they always ask "u nor dey hear word?", again I would say, what is worse than dumbness? The ability to speak but never saying anything reasonable, what is worse than lameness? The ability to walk and not be working, that's the ability to walk (move around) and yet stay idle because you can't work (do something).
The truth is there is no difference between he who can do but does not do and he who cannot do. There is no point having the ability to do, if you won't do.
Unfortunately many of us are so able, yet act so disable.
We have people with eyes but have no vision, sight but no insight, mouths with loosed tongues yet let loose to speak without control...tongues never speaking anything to their futures (and remember the seeds you sow with your mouth today, would be the harvest of your life tomorrow, your life would eventually resemble your words).
We have people never taking their ears to where they can hear anything good- only nonsense 'gossips', legs that walk, but never walking to anywhere good, hands that can work but never doing anything.
Honestly, the first cure we need is our minds disability beyond physical disabilities.
Our minds must work, so our bodies would walk.
And the cure is being informed which brings the light that flushes the darkness of physical and mental disabilities.......
Be informed,Be lighted,Be the Light,Be a Trailblazers........
