All my life I have been teased. I knew for a fact there was a little atom of truth in every insult and the simple truth was that, unlike most people, my legs weren't straight. I had knock kneed mostly referred to as 'K-leg'.
Growing up it bothered me a little but being where I am today, I try not to pay attention to it though I admit I do get occasionally upset when I'm the subject of someone's ridicule.
Having bow leg or K-leg isn't a disability, let's know that for a fact. Not having legs at all is a disability. So if you find yourself in my shoes, try not to beat yourself hard about it, some people have no legs, I can still walk but some people can't.
Does it stop you from living or chasing your dream? That's a big question and the answer is NO well except you want it to. Despite being bullied about my appearance, after series of tantrums, hating myself and how I looked, I let it go.
When it comes to my dreams, I chase it with no reservation, with the totality of my heart. I don't stop until I reach my goal, even if I have to fall a thousand times because somebody thinks perhaps I'm not good enough or I'm slightly disable.
I have contemplated having surgery in the nearest future but I gave up that thought just as fast as it came. I wasn't going to put my life on a knife just to make a change or succumb to being a victim of surgical carelessness. I'm just going to live my life the way I am regardless of what people think or say about me.
I have only one life to live and I'm not about to waste it hating on myself, wishing things were different when I could just live it up to the fullest. So whatever situation you find yourself in, I suggest you do the same.
