I recently shared a post from the Uncommon Sense Blog: “I cannot be her voice. But I’ll be her microphone.”
There are a few reasons why I stopped blogging and being active on Inclusion for Sabrina a while back. One was being overwhelmed and burnt out with Sabrina’s new chronic health issues. But another was because I started considering how much I wanted to put out there. I started considering how much I wanted to share, and how much it was fair to her to share, how much she’d want to me share.
After some time off, it’s become a bit more clear.
I believe that one of Sabrina’s gifts, one of the ways that she can contribute, is her ability to touch hearts, and her ability to spark change.
It’s a journey that I feel we should share. Although this blog is called Inclusion For Sabrina, my writing and my advocating isn’t just about Sabrina. It’s about raising awareness and inspiring change in our schools, communities, and minds.
Not everyone may agree with this, and I get that. It’s a very personal decision. Some share more than others in general.
I may not be able to be her voice. But I can be the way though which she shares her gifts and makes her change in the world.
