“There will be times when inspiration feels distant, when self-doubt creeps in, or when life’s challenges make it tempting to give up. But those are the moments that shape you the most. Push through them. Keep writing, drawing, building, whatever your craft may be, because growth happens in the struggle.”

You have strengths, talents, interests, values, and goals that go beyond your condition. You are not a label, a statistic, or a stereotype. You are a unique and valuable human being.”
