Spoiler alert if you haven’t read the book.
THIS IS THE MOST INSPIRING PICTURE I’VE SEEN ON TUMBLR.
a young adult with down syndrome builds his independence by getting a part time job at a local restaurant. truly an amazing sight.
Why is this amazing? Why isn’t it just normal, why is it special? Because he’s different? Fuck yeah he’s different, everyone is fucking different. No matter what disease or illness or birth defect or injury or anything someone has, they’re still a normal fucking person, and I hate it when people treat it like it’s a miracle when they do something a normal person does. Sure they may have a few more setbacks than normal people, but that doesn’t make them not people.
omfg.
ok first of all chill the frig out…people think its great and inspiring because it’s really hard for some people with disabilities to overcome them and except who they are. people dont treat it like a miracle as if a pile of dirt has come to life and has accomplished something…like no! it’s inspiring because even though they have trouble doing normal things, they still have overcome it. and no, they arent normal people but who ever made that a bad thing??? being different and out of the ordinary is beautiful and we have something to learn from people like this guy here becuase if he can overcome his insecurities and be successful, then we can too…so calm the hell down
do I laugh? or do I shake my head? or facepalm? I don’t know….

What’s that shit supposed to mean? You’re saying that to get me to go navy and coast guard. So you’re saying that you won’t be proud of me if I go to a regular college? After all these years of me trying to get you to be proud of me, the only way you’ll be proud of me is if I do something that I don’t want to do? It’s bribing me with words and pride. You know what? Fuck that shit. I could care less if you’re proud of me anymore because I give up on trying to meet your fucking standards. “You’re not thinking about your future.” WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU TO TELL ME THAT I’M NOT THINKING ABOUT MY FUTURE? IT’S MY FUTURE. MY FUTURE. I have the last word on everything because it is my life. I’m the one applying and dealing with this whole process. Do not intervene by saying that I’m not thinking about my future. I know where I want to be. I’m not going to go to the navy or coast guard because that’s not the life style I want. That’s thinking about my future and my needs. I know that it is free education and that I’ll be “important.” But that is not how I do. I work my ass for the shit that I want. I do not need to listen to you convincing me to consider the fucking coast guard when for the billionth time, I said fucking no. I can not handle living like that and I refuse to give it a chance because I know what I want. I’m trying to help out with finding scholarships and everything. I’m just so fucking tired of the same fucking shit. I’ve been trying for so long to be the daughter of proud parents. Dreams crushed. Do I care? Not a fuck is given. I’m doing what I want to do because I want to be happy with my life and my choices.
Really though. Just shut the fuck up.
Do I deserve this? After everything I go through? After everything I went through? After all the efforts of being the good person. After all the efforts of being a good friend. I get this. What is this? Could the timing of this get any worse? Is this even necessary? I did nothing wrong.
when a joke gets out of hand…
Do you want me to take blame for my actions? Fine. I’ll take blame, but please make this go away.
now for me alone.
the debut will make my parents wallets explode ._.
without the debut expenses, they paid around $800 for me already. More or less. Adding the debut, omfg…
