A wonderful poem by Dipti Bhatia, the deputy director of Vidya Sagar, a Chennai based organization working with persons with multiple disabilities. She has congenital visual impairment and is passionate about inclusion and equality.
To be a part, And not stand apart
To belong, And not to be isolated
To have friends, And not just companions
To feel needed, And not just be a person with needs
To be a participant, And not just a spectator
To have responsibilities, And not just enjoy rights
To have opportunities, And not just favours
Is to be included.
