The Rolling Exhibition

Thanks to my dear friend Molly for providing the idea for this post!


These pictures are taken by Kevin Connolly, who is currently a student at Montana State University, a talented photographer, and an avid skier. Oh, and, just as a side note, Kevin was born without legs, which gives him the ability to take these absolutely AMAZING photographs at such unusual and interesting perspectives. Seriously, talk about making lemonade when life gives you lemons AND dwelling in the possibility of a seemingly negative situation! His work is called the Rolling Exhibition and can be found here.

Multimedia Extravaganza

1. Comedians 

I absolutely love and admire two comedians with Cerebral Palsy: Maysoon Zayid and Josh Blue. These two people are extremely amazing role models for anybody living with Cerebral Palsy. I really encourage you to visit their websites and watch their videos to see for yourself! 

Maysoon Zayid 

Josh Blue 

2. Books 

Most of these books are around the young-adult level, though I do think adults would enjoy them as well! Plus, Small Steps is by the author of Holes. 


3. Movies 

I have never seen these movies, but they are  supposed to be really good!

An Inspirational Story

When I was around eight years old I took ballet at the local ballet studio. For three years straight I got to dance in their production of the Nutcracker. That is why I find this story particularly thrilling! Enjoy!  I would love to hear what you think about this video! Go ahead and comment below.
