Second Chance to Live

Empowering the Individual, Not the Brain Injury

Living with a Brain Injury — My Journey thus Far Part 2 Video Presentation

June 8, 2012 By Second Chance to Live

Hello and welcome back to Second Chance my friend. I am happy to have you around my table. Yesterday I began a series, My Journey thus Far. In my experience, I have found that individuals learn in different ways. Some learn better through reading, while other individuals learn better through watching and listening. That is why I read my articles in the video format. My interest is to be of service.

Note: If I may suggest, I would encourage you to watch each part of this video series. Each part of the video series builds upon the previous part (s). Each part of the video series will help you to gain insight into how I arrived at the conclusions that I share through out the video series. As you read watch the video series and I can be of service to you by providing clarity, please let me know my friend. Thank you.

I would encourage you to watch Part 1, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6 and Part 7 of this video series by clicking on the highlighted Part (s).

In my experience, I have found that there is tremendous power in identification. Traumatic brain injuries and invisible disabilities can leave us feeling very alone and  isolated. My hope is that as you listen to this series you will find a freedom to be who you are as an individual who is living with a traumatic brain injury survivor and an invisible disability. My hope is that you will begin to celebrate your self.

My hope is that as you listen to this series you will find the courage to be who you are as an individual, because you are not your brain injury or your invisible disability. My hope is that as you listen to this series you will no longer feel alienated or isolated from your self or other people. My hope is that as you listen to the series you will no longer feel alone as you travel on your journey living with a brain injury.

My hope is that you listen to this series you will dream dreams and see visions for your life and future that you never dreamed possible. My hope is that as you listen to this series you will take the first step on your journey – if you have been reluctant to – and that you will commit to keep walking. My hope is that as you listen to this series you will not give up on your process, a loving God or yourself my friend.
