11.I am a thirty-year-old Asian woman and I work in my family's furniture business in Mombasa,Kenya.I have a disability caused by a spinal(脊柱的) injury.
I started school at the age of three but my physical activity was severely limited due to the nature of my disability.The word pity and the puzzle-horror look on people's faces as they stare at me have been my life's companion since those early days.
I had always dreamt of becoming a lawyer but I had to give up further education due to my health condition.But I still wanted to see whether there was some life out there beyond the narrow limits of my local community.Somehow I always hoped,still,I could find a means to overcome this limitedness.
However,I am very fortunate to have a positive family.They have also faced challenges having a disabled member in the family,but they have never made me feel different or treated me differently.
Having personally experienced a lot of discrimination,I decided that it was time to create awareness about disability in my community.I went to work at the Rotaract Club,an organization that assists the poor in society.However,I noticed that it runs on an easy charity model-food,clothes,sometimes cash.Even though this approach serves immediate needs,I knew that we needed to and could do more.
Being the only disabled member in the club made it difficult to express my views.So,as soon as I retired from the Rotaract Club I produced Dear Diary.It is a play which is based on my real life experiences as well as those with similar experiences.I insist that the Asian community need to look deeply into its beliefs towards persons with disabilities and establish structures of social support for them.Someone must teach them that an individual's inner self is even precious.
