When you are young you have no idea that one day you will be so incapacitated that you are totally dependent upon others for your life. I do not know what we would have thought had we known this when we were children. I do not suppose a child could comprehend this anyway.
To be so incapacitated is the most demeaning thing in the world. Being cut off from the rest of the world is the most horrible thing as well. Today this has really got to me. Usually in my day, I start off not too bad, and feeling quite bright and hopeful. However when it starts to become dark I too feel dark. I will have been on my bed all say, in the complete darkness, courtesy of my blindness, seeing no one and speaking to no one.
Today, it has been a sad day. I feel as if I am on a roller coaster of emotions. It is like climbing the hardest mountain ever. Every step is so hard and difficult. But we keep going. There is no choice. I must keep climbing that mountain.
Hi! My name is Samaira Guleria, I am 18 years old. I am currently an undergraduate student at the university of Calgary. I value High moral values towards my family and society. I have had the great fortune of working on a variety of truly inspiring projects while networking with many influential and creative individuals along the way. These experiences include a few fundraising projects with Youth Action Hub and a fellowship program with Young Learners For Action Citizenship, etc. They have taught me that anything once considered growth must never be considered a failure. I heavily believe in working together to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
I am committed to dedicating my fullest efforts to achieving my goal. Along the way, I have developed strong leadership qualities as well.
I am enthusiastic to exercise my power of expression and look forward to sharing the depth of my ideas and convictions via this page.
