Importance in this Temple

I have been thinking that maybe some of you prefer not to have a member who has a medical disability and can't think outside the box as well as others may do. On the other hand, the assignments I have completed here helped me overcome my mental retardation though. Feel free to share your thoughts.

should it matter that someone has a medical disability? i don't think so, of course i'm not some elitist snob either...

one of my training masters had numerous medical disabilities, that didn't stop him from contributing, or being a great member....

YOu dont seem to have a 'retardation' of learning...

You may have other mental issues, but shoot, I think we all do to some degree...

YOu are fine, and if you were lead to think that, please message someone you trust to discuss it...

We have a number of members who have physical/mental/emotional/medical concerns.

As per our Doctrine, anyone who "prefers not to have a member" with a disability of any kind here, should probably not be here themselves.

I have spoken to you many times and think you are helpful, and a nice person.
We all have problems, you are a valued member, with many great points.
I just see you and appreciate your imput.
If it means anything you have made a difference to my journey here, you belong here as much as anyone else dont ever think otherwise.

Have you grown substantially since you joined? Do you value this change in your life? Then who cares what everyone else thinks...

I, myself, have a couple of learning disabilities. I also have behavioral issues. I have been working on those for years with my fellow Jedi. But, had there been a mentality that only certain people could be Jedi, then I don't know if I would have made it into the TOTJO Knight that I am today. This is a place where we lift up people of every condition and status. Do not let hateful words deter you, for they are not the view of this site and its leaders/community.

i have authority issues....though i don't know if that counts as a disability...it probably should since it sometimes hinders me....lol

One's capability to find inner truth is not based upon what we as people have defined as intelligence... It's such a silly concept to try to define, really. I for one hope that you are not self conscious about such a thing. Anyone is welcome to find their path, and what I believe it comes down to is whether YOU think it is right. Don't let someone else make that decision for you.

Ever watch Forrest Gump?

We all have issues. How we deal with them is the key to our personal development. It's never easy but it is an adventure.
