    We often forget how disabled people have made valuable contributions to society, often because their different-ability gave them a deeper focus on facets normal people discard. Think of the blind singers and massagists who are considered the top notch in their profession, people like Lao Tzu and Stephen Hawkins who were both physically incapacitated but who nevertheless let their minds fly where no-one went before, etc…

      So true. And it is high time our society is more inclusive towards them.

        I’m not sure that it’s right to take that fight away from them. The Mahatma said: be the change you want to be. I believe that’s how we should deal with this issue.
        I for example don´’t give to beggars that have been maimed for the sole purpose of making them better beggars. When enough people follow suit, it may stop crime syndicates of maiming people (mostly children) for this purpose.

    I believe that beauty and ugliness come from within and not dependent on someone’s outer features. Though it may be a reflex to stay away from people who are not normal, we have to make an effort and teach our kids to do the same – give time to get to know the person before you form conclusions about them…
