Self acceptance: what a gift from my Creator!

I’ve never been a popular person. All of my life I have never had more than a few supportive friends since I was a little girl. Somehow despite this being true about being me, being Ayesha Karim, being who I am this doesn’t bother me at all. You would think that would make me feel less good than other people but I feel good about myself and hold on to self love, self expression and self awareness. I don’t feel better than anyone else and I don’t feel worse like some people do. I have a positive outlook on life and I believe in being kind to others. I can remember how difficult my adolescent years were despite the fact that I had parents that really cared about me and support me even now at age 36. My parents don’t have perfect lives but my mom is a nurse and a midwife. She’ has had an amazing career and my step dad worked for the government since he married my mom when I was ten years old. They started dating when I was like eight or nine years old. Neil is trying to see if he can get me benefits from his 25 years working for SSA. I thought that was such a nice gesture Neil made and if they accept the application he filled out that I electronically signed yesterday I will receive more money. I’ll probably have $200 plus more dollars in my SSDI check I get on the 3rd of every month. Now I have to start managing my money. Thank you Neil!
