Some Food For Thought

Hi, I am Katie. I cannot speak. You may pity me and if you do I will see it in your eyes. You may wonder how much I am aware of what goes on around me. I will see that as well.

I assure you I am very aware when you are happy or sad, fearful, patient or impatient, full of love or if you are just doing what you think is your duty for me.

I marvel at your frustration when you can’t understand me, knowing mine is far greater, for I cannot express myself as you do. I cannot gift you with clever conversation or cute remarks to be laughed over and repeated. I cannot give answers to your everyday questions or comment about the world around us. I try but often cannot give you rewards as defined by the world’s standards. Some people may hope to see great strides in my development that they could take credit, but I cannot promise anyone great strides.

Yet what I promise to give you is so much more valuable. I give you the opportunity to discover the depth of your character. I give you the opportunity to show the depth of your love for humanity. You will find how much patience you have when you are with me and how committed you can be to individuals like me. I will test your abilities and I will drive you further then you ever thought you could go.

So in helping to understand me, I benefit and you will also benefit.
