“Skopje without barriers” – protest march for people with disabilities

Guys, I want to share my experience today – attending the march dedicated to people with disabilities.

I saw the event on Instagram and decided to go. One of the organizers approached me, greeted me and said "Thanks for coming". The march started with a speech by the guy in the picture (sorry, I don’t know his name but I think his nickname is Gere) and we headed to the park.

While we were driving towards the park, music was played and Gere added several motivational statements and spread maximum positivity.

They played the songs "Eye of the tiger", "We’re the champions" and a few songs from Toshe – I remembered them and honestly brought tears to my eyes. The emotion was fueled by seeing people who find every possible day 10 times harder than a normal person being unreservedly HAPPY. I haven’t seen such a positive thing in a long time. These people simply enjoy life and live the moment with their soul.

I just asked myself a question: Well, it was good to be invisible to him, except that I am healthy, alive and have as much as I have, thank God, do I need to bring it to a situation like this to start appreciating?

A rapid pace of life has been imposed on us where everything is seen through the prism of money, power and sex and 90% of people are dissatisfied stuck in eternal lack – and I am part of them but until today. Today I got a new perspective on everything and I want to thank the guys who organize this event and the people who participated.

A little more positive, a smile and a good thought is my light motive from today.

And YES, you are CHAMPIONS for me, THANK YOU. ❤️
