6/7/2023 0 Comments Becoming Human by Jean Vanier![]() ![]() ![]() Only when we embrace our own disabilities will we also be able to accept others with disabilities. So the act of excluding from the normal life of society people with disabilities that are visible also has profound lessons to teach us, as it probably is a symptom of how we have not embraced and accepted our own brokenness and fragilities. I think that we all have our own disabilities in some ways, not necessarily in physical form but rather we all have some brokenness and fragilities within us that we want to hide from the society, many a times, because society as a whole generally is not very kind and understanding towards our brokenness and fragilities, due to their competitive mindset. I agree with this perceptive quote by Jean Vanier. “Those we most often exclude from the normal life of society, people with disabilities, have profound lessons to teach us” ![]()
