What does it mean to you to live large? For instance, can a disabled person live large in life if they can't work or travel. What does that look like if they do? I'm trying to narrow down what people think is a large life and what it really is.
Best,
Mark

I agree with all of the previous answers. One additional thought - Living large could be making a difference in the world. Even a
disabled person can do this! It means being out there " where everyone knows your name" so to speak! Be an example of how, even with a disability, anyone can be productive and make a difference in the world! One person that came to my mind was Helen Keller. You could say people like Stevie Wonder,Ray Charles , Christopher Reeves and Michael J. Fox are among this type of person. Not only have they shown you can overcome your disability but they have used it to get help for others who are victims of the disability.
There are also many ordinary everyday people who are in this category. I have a cousin who has been deaf since childhood. Now, as an adult, she has been an advocate and even a leader for cochlear implants. She works at this by way of government contacts. She must be around 70 years old now!
I'm sure we all know someone like this! Every human being should be out there living their life and LIVING IT LARGE! :)

Living large is a daily requirement in our home.I have a differently abled child.To him living large is to accomplishing all he can in a day.Even if he just learns a new word, he has learned.That's all I can hope for.
