Who would want to hire a disabled person?

Over these past few weeks I have been going on interviews to be a special education teacher. This is my dream. This is what I have been wanting to do my whole life. Yet on these interviews I just see them looking at me from the outside. Let me tell you it is hard I have yelled out in frustration Cried my eyes out in sadness Asked God why this is happening Thrown myself a pity party But you know what this week I have turned the corner and I have realized that all my life I have had to fight for myself and I have knocked down battle after battle in terms of my disability. I am a strong  person and I need to put on a shield of armor and go into each interview convincing them that I am worthy of a job. I have gotten this far in my journey to becoming a teacher and I cannot give up  now. So let me tell you why I am worthy of becoming a special education teacher. I know what it is like to live with a disability and to be different like my future students have to face Havi
