The best way to overcome disability is to face in

head-on and prevent you from achieving great things.
This is the lesson I draw from the lives of two people
whom I admire, the musician Stevie Wonder and the
track and field athlete Jackie Joyner Kersee. I respect
them for their courage and strength in overcoming
obstacles. Both are persons with disabilities who defied
obstacles in order to be successful in their fields. They
taught me never to give up no matter how intimidating
the obstacles you face in life. (Celebrating Diversity Through
World Literature, English Learner’s Material for Grade 10, DepEd: Rex
