There is only one person I
could think of when I read this title – that is my dear friend, Samantha Carolissen.
She was born with only one ligament, her arm.
Whenever I see her I am warmed
with pride. She has accomplished so many great things, despite her disability.
The list of her achievements is something to admire, as a fully able person and
even other disabled people. Currently she is 29 years old, her achievements are
as follows: she got her licence (with only one ligament), she bought herself a
car (not her mother), she completed her BTech and is currently working at one
of South Africa’s most influential corporations: Eskom.
She is a shining example,
not matter what she goes through somehow she always managers to find something smile
about, even if sometimes she isn’t smiling on the inside.
I applaud her for her
courageous attitude, and in honour of her I will use only my left hand. That’s
the sound of one hand clapping.
