Paraplegia?
Surprise in the tone as a friend is caught off-guard...
Did I miss something? she thinks with confusion.
Ahem.... he couldn’t use his right arm or right leg.
Oh - of course!
Mental adjustments as realisation hits home.
What is your identity?
Is it caught up in the scars on your face?
Is it found in your hair cut or colour?
Who are you?
Mr Ambidextrous?
Do not define me by cancer!
Or disability!
Or gender!
I am Child of God.
I am Reflection of Creator.
I am Delight and Joy.
I am Lover and Beloved.
I am Wonder and Wonder-fully made.
I am Community and Bearer of Heart.
I am Edges and Centre.
I am AND I am of the I AM.
