People come up with labels to describe a person continuously. It gets dangerous when people are treated as if they are the labels they are given. It gets very confusing, for me. There are so many labels and I'm treated as I was the different labels various professional people give me I’m given new labels to describe something in/about my body and/or mind all the time! The only thing I have to say to all the many 'label givers' is “Treat Me - A Person,, Not As A Label! Please, treat me, the person I am!” I am a person 1 st above everything, including the labels dished out so frequently and numerously! Treat Me As That Person I Am, Not The Label(s)! Please!” ...

I would rather people spend the day with me now, while I am still here, so we can enjoy quality time together. Give your time to me while you still can and when I am with you still. If you will spend this time together now, instead of gi ving up a day in your lives having to come to my funeral, I promise , we will have a much better time! Evelyn M
Evelyn Pinto College! The friendships I had were special and I had fond memories that I always, always treasured. Now, I'm making new, different, better memories! I'm older and so are my yesteryear friends but, we're still marvelously unique and maybe still a little weird. I like weird, unique and marvelous!
Some days it seems that whatever you do, even if you try to make something wrong, right; well, it turns out even more of a disaster! Ever have those days? My mother (when I was a child) used to tell me to go back to bed and get up again. In that case, how many times to I go to bed and get up over again? At what number do I stop? Maybe some days were meant to spend in bed OR maybe some days were meant not acknowledging some people's or/and the world around me's existence. In life, we have those times but tomorrow brings the hope and realization of how wonderful the world is and how loving and precious the people in it truly are! Thank you, Evelyn
We can't see behind the faces of the people we meet and come in contact with. We don.t know if they are in pain, are happy, are feeling sick, are feeling discouraged or are fighting a battles (or battles) that aren't obvious to us. Be kind and respectful to your neighbor and yourself. We are all fighting battles. We dont need to fight unnecessary battles. Be kind and encouraging. We have it in us to help each other. We also have the power (intentionally or unintentionally to hurt each other). Don't hurt! Help! Make a bad day a bit better for your neighbor and yourself! Be kind!
Pinto October 8 near Somerville Good Morning Friends! Today, well today I can either acknowledge the world's people occupants existence or ignore their existence. Today, I'm in one of my 'Evelyn moments' . Today, it would be best to ignore the conflictive, argumentative, trouble people occupants that seem to really enjoy irritating me. Yes, today, I will ignore just these unfortunate, irritating these people occupants of this world that bother me more when I'm experiencing my 'Evelyn moments'. Oh, these times of my 'Evelyn moments' Prayers will be greatly appreciated and I will be so grateful. Love and Prayers To All and Please God Help Your World We Are All Living In Now. Love and Prayers, Evelyn
Evelyn Pinto October 8 First, I dream it. Second, I draw up everything in me to believe it CAN be done. Third, I imagine ways to do it. Fourth, I decide which way would be the best and way to do it. Sixth, I figure out to do it. Seventh, I work tirelessly and endlessly to get it done. Finally, it is done! What first was a dream of mine (with imagination, planning, persistence, hard work and a strong will to never give up) is now real! If my accomplishments don't fit yours or society's views of what accomplishments should be , well then, change yours and society's views of accomplishments! Evelyn M. Pinto
I'm tired of the views of a lot of people that think that because I don't work (it could be any job) I'm not a productive member of society! Crap! Even worse, some people even think I don't have a reason to be tired. Being in the System, I have a lower degree of respect and dignity from a lot of people, especially people in Healthcare. In general, I have less credibility than the people giving me services. These are, generally, the views of many people. Many in the System would rather, in most incidents, believe anyone else, other than the service recipient and would come up with any and all excuses to make the service recipient not credible! I say: Unless people in the System stop using my health issues as an excuse to question my credibility, they will be terminally delusional This is a general statement. This is how most people I encountered in the System think. I want to thank the people I've met who know ME for Me! They've, especially caregivers who ...
Good Morning Friends! I look out my window and see a blue sky, trees starting to turn into their Autumn dress, bushes that have grown where they meet me at my window, etc... I see the wondrous creation of Our God! I know there are people outside my apt going about their daily business. Then POOF! I realize the part I play in the world. I am a participant,a person placed in this to to help my neigh bor and to give to this world and the people in it. I don't think of myself, my life as an observer, nor as a victim, etc.. My life, whatever the turns, the hurts, the joy, the laughter, the accomplishments, my whole life is meant is to glorify My Lord! This morning, I'm going to live my day in a way that will give Him most honor and glory! Today is a day to "rejoice and be glad!"

I am ME! I am Not my disabilities! I am Not my sickness and I am Not the wheelchair that I use just to get places! I do Not regret who I AM! I do regret having contact people my life who think less of because they think I am my disabilities and the wheelchair! People who would rather judge me by my circumstances of my life and not as the person I really am are totally missing out o something totally wonderful! Evelyn Pinto
