Dear mom and dad, You didn’t just raise me as your daughter with a disability. You saw much more from the beginning. I was your fourth child. In your eyes, I have always been “normal.” You were the first to teach me determination. Giving up was not an option. We didn’t focus on disability or discuss how my limitations affected …
I’ve been thinking about all the things that happened in 2017. My one word was fill. As we begin a new year, I can definitely say that 2017 was a year… Filled with lots of moments. Full of impossible things. And the prayer I invited you to pray with me was answered. How was it full of impossible things? I have so many examples, …
Today we welcome Jasmine from The Globe on Wheels to the traveling conversation! My love of ancient cultures and civilizations began when I took a Greek and Roman mythology course as an elective for one of the programs I was studying at the time. As soon as I finished that program, I applied to my local university and was accepted into …
The travel series continues with the story behind Accessitrip. Welcome, Irina! Hello, my name is Irina.

It wouldn’t be possible for me to say, “This is how I…run!” without the presence of an extra someone. My friend and I have already finished several short races and a half marathon. I run because we run together. See how in the video.
enter, go in the tent for the night note the moon, the fading light feel the wind, watch the trees soar make a bed on the earth’s floor talk, laugh until you can no more hear the people and dogs next door wait for the coming of the day see the sun as dark goes away listen as the birds …
Culture, as a whole, needs to learn about focus. Seeing the strengths of someone. Looking past any obstacles. Coming from the angle of ability. Fact: There is a high level of unemployment for people with disabilities. However, there is a passion to break the employment barriers. Recently I connected with Project Starfish, a group that began as a startup at …
I started choosing one word for the year back in 2014. It’s not really to define what I do in the year to come or what goals I set. But the word is something I dwell on. I can look back and see how God has placed each word on my heart. Every year, the word I choose becomes a …
