“All of the girls know much more what to say, but I know, I have a heart like the sea.” - Miss Saigon
It’s no surprise, being the closeted crybaby that I am, that I absolutely sobbed through dang near the entire performance of Miss Saigon.
Not only was it a great performance and an even greater story, but the main character Kim reminded me of not only myself, but of so many of the women in my life, allowing me to connect with her on a whole new level.
If you’ve seen the show, you’re probably thinking, ‘really, you’re comparing yourself to her, to all of the unthinkable things she’s been through?’
No. No I’m not.
I’m saying that I relate to Kim as a person, as the fighter and dreamer that she so beautifully is.
Despite her circumstances, this woman taught me that it’s perfectly fine being different than any other female out there.
There are a lot of girls - not all, just a lot - who are chasing after fickle things like instagram follows and striving to look like every Kardashian/Jenner.
It’s okay not to be like them and instead focus on what’s important in life; whaT your heart is craving.
Every night the character of Kim teaches every female - every person - in attendence to never give up, that one day you will find hope as long as you keep believing. Most importantly, she teaches us all how to be the strong, courageous women that we are.
Now, I know it ended pretty Romeo and Juliet’esque...but still, this play truly showed me the bravery, love, and strength that it takes to be a women.
QUESTION TIME
• Have you seen Miss Saigon? What was your favorite part or what did it teach you?

I'd Love to Hear from You!
When it comes to finding work as a disabled person, options are very limited. Writing and getting to connect with people on a special level is something that I love to do. Nothing in the world beats being able to be your true, authentic self and have someone not only appreciate, but be able to relate to it in one way or another.
