Ini ditulis dari pengamatan saya.
Adalah pendapat saya, dan interpretasi di atas bagaimana saya melihat orang bereaksi, dan bertindak toward yang dilihat oleh mereka seberbeda.
Oleh 'orang' saya berarti; Individu dari semua jalan-jalan hidup, yang digunakan di bermacam-macam kerja, biru kerah, putih kerah dll. Saya juga bermaksud blok resmi, jabatan pemerintah.
Oleh 'berbeda' saya berarti; Individu yang mempunyai, dengan Masyarakat di umum, ialah macam melemparkan sebagai, 'tak ada norma'.
Yang pernah anda ialah, dan di mana pernah anda hidup, mustahil tidak membentuk pendapat lewat pengalaman. Memang, kita semua belajar dan bertambah besar ke dalam yang kami dengan hidup apa yang kami pelajari, atau menjaga orang lain hidup itu! Saya, sedikitnya di serangan tiba-tiba titik ini ke dalam Perkumpulan catagory 'norma', tetapi bahwa ialah di mana berhenti!
Saya di 'genangan yang berbeda' itu dan saya merasa saya entah bagaimana sebaiknya malu, tetapi saya tidak!
Saya keajaiban kadang-kadang yang sebaiknya lebih malu; yang etiket, atau yang sudah diberi etiket!
Saya mempunyai cacat, Etiket 1!
Saya di wheelchair, Etiket 2!
Seperti itu dikenal dan otomatis memberi etiket, dengan Masyarakat, menempatkan saya di sektor 'berbeda'!
Tetapi saya tidak mengingat merasa negatif toward salah satu dari kedua, masih Masyarakat, di pendapat saya, menganjurkan negativity sekitar kedua! Dilakukan ini oleh tindakan dan reaksi mereka, atas berbagai-macam tingkat berbeda.
1. Pejabat berlari kesana-kemari membuat organisasi agar membiayai yang cacat untuk menjadi lebih banyak, atau terus untuk menjadi, tak tergantung. Mereka mendirikan memerintah majelis, dan memberi mereka hak untuk menilai yang adalah yang paling 'patut' di antara yang 'berbeda' untuk dihadiahi monies.
Apa monies untuk?
Mereka akan pergi toward membeli di asisten.
Untuk membayari Perewatan di rumah.
Mereka akan membolehkan yang itu dengan cacat mengelola keperluan perewatan mereka sendiri.
Apa yang kelihatannya menjadi gagasan luar biasa, sampai 'norma' Masyarakat, jadinya menjadi penuh lubang ke yang 'berbeda'
Yang Cacat, jika ditawari wortel, alat, untuk tetap di rumah mereka sendiri, akan tahan. Tetapi dengan wortel datang seekor keledai! (bagal atau mungkin not!)
Saya sudah menyebutkan bahwa wortel pendanaan.
Keledai ialah: peraturan, syarat.
Wortel menyatakan anda bisa hidup bagaimana anda menginginkan, menggunakan monies bagaimana anda suka sepanjang sebagainya untuk menolong anda independants dan asisten.
Keledai menetapkan, tak ada pertolongan dengan kebun anda, tak ada pertolongan dengan membawa anjing anda berjalan-jalan! Namun yang ini adalah hal dilakukan kami! Menyatakan bahwa anda mungkin pergi, barangkali ke film, satu kali sebulan kira-kira. Anda diamati terus-menerus. Anda dianjurkan masih mengiklankan tidak bisa memakai yang diberi yang pendanaan, untuk mengiklankan!
Kalau dipilih ke recieve pembiayaan ini, anda dinilai karena keperluan anda, kemudian tidak menyediakan cukup pembiayaan untuk menutupinya!
Ini tidak independance sewaktu orang lain mengetahuinya!
Masyarakat mengatakan yang 'berbeda' untuk menjadi berterima kasih!
Mengapa?
Terimakasih menunjukkan hadiah, penghargaan, pengakuan bahwa yang 'berbeda' berhutang sampai 'norma'.
While I have never been the kind of Individual that feels 'The World owes me' , I certainly am not the kind of Individual who feels indebted to Society! We are talking about basic needs, humanity! Not showing gratitude for a sweet show of kindness!
This action only causes a rift, and whereas the majority declare they are enabling and integrating the minority, it seems they are not, not at this level! They are passifying and controlling!
In my opinion if 'the different' were not labelled, were efficiently helped, and were treated as human 'the norms', reactions and actions would be positive!
It's a corporates reaction to the 'different' To give an inch but take a mile! But it's not important to act efficiently, only to be seen to act by Society, by 'the norm', by the labellers!
Why act at all?
To lessen the feel of guilt! To feel right within themselves. To get votes!
2. The type casting and labelling at such high levels has, in my experience, had a dominoe effect! Correction, has had, and continues to have!
We are not in the dark ages, when those with a disabilty were hidden away from Society, or seen begging in dirt ingrained rags, or shunned when noticed. Or are we?
I am a people watcher.
People fascinate me!
Their reactions to 'the different' amuse me!
They amuse me because I am happy with who I am; My soul; My life. I am happy in all aspects.
I, like many, have hang ups, and unanswered questions, like 'does my butt look big in this' or 'am I fat' or 'If Wile Coyote can afford to buy all the ammunition from acme, why doesn't he buy himself dinner', but, with all my hang ups, I am happy!
This being the case, it doesn't upset me when a curious child with a beaming smile and innocent eyes, runs up to me full of questions. Only to have a Parent drag the child away by the arm, and instill in the babe the need to stay away!
No, it does not upset me, but it does sadden me!
Such reactions remind me of the days of the Human Circus, where 'the different' were put on display to be feared or mocked! The trend continues! Unfortunately it will continue, if Parents continue dragging away the innocent!
If a little child is curious, ask the individual with the disability if they mind questions. Perhaps the Parent has a problem approaching 'the different'! That is more likely than not!
3. If all are seen as equal, as is so often advertised by Associations; If improvements are being made to buildings, both facially and structually, to enable those with a disability to enter, then why is my entry obstructed!
It is incredible, in my opinion that there are still places I can not visit! New stores, older stores, even stores that are structually accessable and have automatic doors are not acccessable!
Why?
The actions of 'the norm' to 'the different'
Those who have money, often desire more. If such a character is a store owner, or manager, their prime motivation is to gain profit. It stands to reason then that they need to keep sales high. The more the customer sees through the window the more enticing. The more goods on show in the store, the more inviting! The more goods, the more shelving! The more shelving, the less free space! Bingo! No Access! Oh I must admit that some shop assistants will try to accomodate, coming out onto the pavements or walkways outside, to take your order. But for goodness sake, is this equality! I think not!
Other store assistants react by averting their gaze and turning away.
When all is said and done, we all do well to remember; Those that think they are in a better situation often are not. Those that think they know the answers, often learn nothing at all! Those that label others, often become labelled themselves.
How we treat, react and act toward others, ultimately makes a huge difference!
I prefer the actions of those that truely see no labels!
Those who see no colour, creed, disability, or nation!
Those that are not children, but like children, are just curious!
I prefer my circle!
