Stretch yourself

“I am a human being, nothing human can be alien to me. If a human being dreams a great dream, dares to love somebody; if a human being dares to be bigger than the condition into which he or she was born, it means so can you. And so, you can try to stretch. Stretch. Stretch yourself.”

-Maya Angelou

Inspired by William Ernest Henley, this is The Gait. "It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul." After I found out I had muscular dystrophy, I've been two lives: one that exists in India where I wear kurtas and speak Hindi more than English, and the other, an American girl who says 'thank you' and 'please' more than anyone likes. I'm learning and living for the moments when my curiosity gets the best of me. Follow me on this not-so-straight path of life. Thanks for stopping by!
