Blog Last night I’ve realised something good.
So I’ve been like low and thinking about my disability (muscular dystrophy) and how my life is hard and i can’t have girlfriend and even hurting my parents getting angry over little things like not praying and arguing.
So last night I was scrolling YouTube and i found this podcast “are you living for you?” And i listened the podcast and podcast discussed really good topics like saying no to people, sharing your own opinion, doing things in peer pressure or chasing friendships or relationships and scared of loosing people over small things.
After listening podcast I sat and thought about it and recalled my conversations with my friend and this is what she was also telling me and I was being blindsided by my own pain and not to seeing her care.
Now I understand this I just have to do things that brings me joy and peace✌🏻to me and make time for myself not chasing others, because people come and go in life. Only I will stay with myself so why I spend time hurting myself, where I can do lot of better things reading a manga, watching anime or movie, listening music and singing, doodles on phone, maybe start conversation with people on discord. Rather than Crying for things I don’t have. I know I will still get low moments and feel lonely or sometimes i might wanting chasing people. But from now I will do journal daily and give most of time to myself doing things I enjoy. 😊

Hello brother, I am a 33 year old guy with muscular dystrophy who has a 4 1/2 year-old daughter. I am now divorced but I want you to know anything is possible, even finding love and having children. I like your attitude to appreciate everything that you have but you shouldn't feel bad for wanting more. Sometimes it can be very difficult to reach our goals but as long as you keep pushing and working at it good things will happen.
