Finally got to post this video and for someone who has lived with severe hearing loss all these years, I found the Even G1 smart glasses from @evenrealities totally amazing.

These are some of the responses I get when I meet some people for the first time.
What other responses do you get that are not here? Care to share in the comments section?

I have always had this saying that not so many people give a damn about people with disabilities, especially in this part of the world. So when the opportunity came up, with Nnanweobi Ikechukwu Augustine at the forefront of this vision, I had to jump on it.

I believe in his vision for the @ndts.ng , and his commitment to the disability ecosystem.

I believe in what can happen when people with disabilities are not simply spoken about, but are given opportunities to participate, lead, create, contribute, and shape the conversations that affect them.

So here is to serving, bringing my creativity, my experience, and most importantly, my passion for disability advocacy.♿

And if you haven’t heard of NDTS yet, you can follow the tagged pages to learn everything else there is to know. by @joylyn_evolved

I may not hear the conversation, but trust me,your face is giving me the entire plot

Your face? Talking.
Your body language? Talking
That little side-eye? SCREAMING. 😭
Your energy? DAMN LOUD.

This is just one of the superpowers of being deaf. I get to read people without hearing a word they say.

This is the same for every deaf person, right? Tell me, it's not just me.

Not every part of disability makes it to social media.Some realities are lived quietly, behind the scenes.

You may only see someone walking,
You don't see the courage it took to get there.

Be kind.
You never know what someone is learning to live with.
