When I grow up

Watch the Mexican Radio Audio Trend video here.

I never imagined my life would turn out the way it did. I remember when I was little, I couldn’t wait to grow up and do all the things. I had aspirations to travel and experience the world’s offerings as soon as I left the nest.

I also looked forward to trying more trivial things like snowboarding, aerial silks, and dancing my heart out at a music festival,  just to name a few, but my time never came. I naively believed I had all the time in the world to plan and live out my future but the universe had other plans. 

Despair and devastation took over as my body started to betray me, and I was losing myself before I ever found myself—I was just a kid whose life had barely begun.

Life isn’t always kind or fair and yet time has shown me that it’s still possible to live a good life even if it’s different than you expected. We can’t control what happens to us but we can enjoy it with more community support, empathy, acceptance, and celebration of diversity amongst us. xx
