Sped or not we all learn as one

In today’s world there are many different kinds of people that come from many different places, all with different experiences.  Almost everyday during lunch I find myself in the Life-skills room (special ed room) volunteering during lunch and helping the kind and wonderful students down there.  Even though this is very time consuming I love every minute of it because the kids down there teach me more than I think I could teach them.  I have learned that even though they have disabilities they find different ways to learn and prove to the rest of the world that they are just the same as everyone else.  Each and everyday I am amazed at the courage and love they display even though many people are rude and unkind to them.  I am writing this blog in the hope of informing people that even though we may look different or learn differently that we all are important and all have something to contribute, no matter our disabilities.  Even though some people need extra help learning or have to complete simple tasks in different ways we should all treat each other equally and learn to work together and not bring those that are different or appear to be different down.  By learning to not be ignorant, except people for who they are, learning to work together, and appreciate what one can contribute no matter how small; the environment around us can become a better place for everyone.
