About the Book
When I was six years old, I started wearing glasses to correct my short sight. My view of my low vision quickly changed when I was twenty years old and found out that my brother had suddenly gone blind. He was told that he was suffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a disorder that slowly destroys the pigment cells in the eyes. So far, there are no known cures. At the tender age of twenty-one, I was also diagnosed with RP. Since then, I have been slowly going blind, not knowing when my world would finally fade away forever. Battling against such a crippling disease led me through a labyrinth of challenges. Having to constantly adapt my lifestyle to fit the changes to my vision became almost unbearable.
During my journey, I experienced a wide range of emotions as I fought to find a way to deal with my disability. After a long hard battle, overcoming huge obstacles, I finally learned to embrace my medical condition.
Despite the problems it has caused me, I have managed to keep a positive attitude towards life. Now I would like to pass on my strengths to other people.
Smile.
When was the last time that you smiled? Some of us are so busy trying to sort out the various problems in our lives that we don’t leave enough time to smile. Our smile is replaced with a frown everytime we concentrate on a problem. When we force ourselves to smile more, it magically helps us in coping with our problems. Force yourself to walk around with a smile on your face. I’m sure that you look like a completely different person! Find something to smile about. Let your personality radiate through your smile. Remind yourself on a regular basis to smile. We should aim to smile at least once a day.
Stephen Marley
