179 Words1 Page

Deborah Dagit seems to be a very strong person inside and out. Not only does she have a disability, but she uses it and her personal strength to help others facing the same difficulties. Deborah should stand as an inspirational figure for all ages through her strength, willpower, and courage in helping others. I found it interesting how Deborah changed her career right in the middle of college, because she decided to do something that she knew about and lived through. This related to me at this time of life, because I am in the middle of figuring out what I want to do for my career. Reading this article helped me realize that even if I change my mind in the middle of college, I can still succeed at what I change my major to. The change will

Similarly, through the play title “Hedda Gabler”, Ibsen’s refusal to subsume Hedda’s personality into her marital title “Tesman” foregrounds her unorthodox personality, portraying the encumbering marriage facing every Victorian women, in which the limitation of the feminine role is embedded in the very nomenclature of society. The writers endow Tess and Hedda with strength necessary to unleash revenge against the “seducer”, a polemic against masculine subduer of female innocence.

    found Stella Young's speech to be extremely profound. It is very true that we used what she calls "inspiration porn" to objectify one group of people for the benefit of another group of people. Her speech opened my eyes and changed the way I perceived disability. As an Occupational therapy student and as an individual who spent years working with people with different stories (mental and physical disability), I do not agree with that quote, "The Only Disability is a Bad Attitude". There are countless number of people out there with legitimate health problems and their attitude has nothing to do with it.
