Being deaf, along with many other things, has its advantages and its disadvantages.
I can literally "tune out".
I sleep in peace every single night.
Loud music does not hurt my eyes.
However, if a fire alarm goes off during sleep or a shower, I am sort of screwed if someone does not save me.
I can be the brunt of jokes.
It can be hard to follow a conversation in a loud area.
Despite all of this, I would never give up being deaf for anything. It is my life, and has become an essential aspect of who I am and how I got here.
I would like to give a shoutout to Sam Anderson, in her blog They Just Say It Better, in the link http://theyjustsayitbetter.blogspot.com. This blog takes songs and describes them in order to bring a light to someone's day. I really like what she did here in this blog, and it is what I hope to do with my life. I would hope that I can do what Sam did each week in her blog, and bring meaning to someone's life with everyone that I interact with.
