First entry: Temporarily Enabled

A friend of mine is a therapist and works with people in wheelchairs, visually impaired, deaf, etc, commonly referred to in politically incorrect terms as "disabled". She recently shared with me a comment one of her clients made:

"We are all temporarily enabled."

Think about it. Eventually, we will lose our abilities. If you have legs, walk. If you have arms, lift. You don't know when you will no longer be able to do this. What we do with our abilities while we are temporarily enabled is up to each of us. What will you do with yours?

As for me, I walk.
