by Pablo Hernández
Some may believe that my life must have the good things that they want—good things that they believe all people want. Have to remind them that those things are calling to them, but sometimes don’t call to me. Caring people can happily tell me that I should have a job to feel good about myself. Good feelings have to come from inside me.
The most appropriate job for me is to write. Other people get a job in a store or a restaurant but those would be impossible for my challenging type of body. That seems like I am picky, but this kind of learning, learning to make my body have some discipline is like asking me to climb the highest mountain every day.
Writing make the true life I want so much. I don’t know if I can make money writing, but it is my best vision for the life I want to live.
