I have been going through many challenges like what u alway go through. We have to be postive and educate those people who don't understand deaf world. At my work, I am only one carrier that they notice me being deaf. Supervisor had spoken again and again, I signed to him and he was confused why I signed. That is the same way I don't understand what he is saying and he could not understand what I am signing. So, I told him to write what he had to say and I wanted to teach all of them signs so they can communcate with me. Rick M. Amy,

You go, Amy! I, too, felt a begrudging realization but I shan’t accept anything but the positiveness inherent in Amy’s realization of her own raison ‘d’ etre. You go, Amy!

I detected a note of resignation...yes, you were born to educate others, but you also were born to fulfill yourself and your ideals. May you achieve all your ideals and more! Beautiful, Amy!

Yes, I am born to teach, so my teachers said in my 7th grade, smile. True, our deafhood has taught us our path to be teachers in one way or another for the world. Hmm, yeah. Thanks for bringing this up. Jon, I agree 100% with ya!! deafk Amy,

It is about showing people who we are. We teach patience to those by having patience with them. If the only thing we cannot do is hear, let's show the world 1001 things that we can do. We are Deaf, and we are not a mistake. And we have the growing pains like everybody else does. And we have purpose. It's a two way street. They need to want to learn from us as we do learn from others. Sometimes we don't have to say a word while the hearing world learns from us simply because we are Deaf. Someone said to me, "you are so lucky you don't have to hear all the garbage being said." I said, oh really? Try us! That is, if they can figure it out and learn from us. And, we are not just a rock, that exists. We sprout flowers too, and waters burst forth, flowing. We can show them all things that can come forth from a crack in a rock. We're not barren. Every living soul under the sun has a purpose, and the moonlight highlights our purpose being fulfilled. It is really about exhibiting our Deafness. It is about showing people who we are.
