Yes, that is correct. There is no blog post today and there won’t be one next week or the week after. I am not taking a break, I am preparing for the future of this blog and all its contents! I want 2016 to be inspiring for you all and as easy as it might seem being inspiring is very difficult!
If I forward plan this then you all will be getting inspired every week in 2016! I am sorry that it has come to this as I know some regulars read this blog but don’t worry it’s not gone forever! Regular posts shall be resuming on the 6th of January 2016 (fingers crossed) every week until 2017. I can’t make any promises as I am planning a lot for next year on other platforms but we can try!
Sorry again and I will see you all in 2016! Also, big thanks for getting this blog over 1000 views!!! :)

The Full Little Box of Love #1 – How to get love?
I am about to share some top secret information that nobody really tells you. It is the answer to people who want love. For those who want a girlfriend. For those who want a boyfriend. It isn’t simple but very effective. And everyone can do it. Able or disabled. White or black. And the thing is you are doing it now. It’s something that I have been mentioning for these past two weeks.
Know what it is yet? Well it’s simple really…
BE YOURSELF! You are unique, you are talented and you are one of a kind, in other words saying unique again! To get a girl or boy to like you isn’t by having the most expensive watch or having loads of money, it isn’t even about being perfect. Nobody is perfect! You are not perfect! I am not perfect! Nobody is!
You want a girl or boy to like you? Then go out and get one because somebody is waiting for you. It may take some time but that’s life! Nothing just comes at your doorstep (unless you order something smarty pants but you get the context that I am saying) if you want it then you gotta go get it…
This post was brought to you buy someone who is still searching. If I haven’t given up then so shouldn’t you!

The Full Little Box of Truth #3 – BE YOURSELF!
So, last week we discussed how you are not perfect but unique and have unique talents. Today we shall be expanding on this. I want YOU all to know that YOU are all special and should continue to be yourselves. Nobody can change that!
YOU may get parents, teachers, even your friends telling YOU that YOU can’t do this and that, which could really bring YOU down and from this it could change YOU to be something YOU’RE not. But just remember YOU are your own person and shouldn’t listen to them because YOU are YOU and YOU can do whatever YOU want! Unless it’s doing something bad then I think YOU should listen to others! Also, it can go the other way, YOU can do whatever YOU want but if it’s very ambitious then it’s not going to be easy.
I am very tired of talking about my skydive but it comes into play here. I feel I have mentioned this before but part of the planning of my skydive I had to deal with people not being so helpful. I’m not going to mention names because it’s not right if I do. After not being able to do the skydive in the UK these individuals told me straight up that I shouldn’t worry about it and leave it. If I listened to them and didn’t push myself to do the skydive I wouldn’t of had such an awesome experience. It wasn’t easy but it was very much worth it in the end!
Don’t listen to negative people because sometimes YOU may lose a great opportunity. Also, in case YOU may get confused, still have role models and look up to people because there are some great role models BUT don’t try and be them as they are not YOU.
I’m done… just be YOU…

For those who haven’t seen my skydive have a watch of this version as you all probably haven’t seen this one!

The Full Little Box of Inspiration #2 – YOU’RE NOT PERFECT!!!
It’s true, you’re not perfect! Your family isn’t perfect. None of your friends are perfect. Neither are the people we look up to like PewDiePie or Kim Kardashian. Nobody in this world is perfect. But who needs to be perfect when we are all unique.
Each one of us is unique. We were all born unique and we all have unique talents. And don’t you dare tell me that you don’t have a talent because everyone has! I type on the computer with my feet and can play videogames! Don’t believe me?
As you were saying? If I am able to do that with my feet then you have no excuse to find your own talent if you haven’t found it already! Remember, you may not be perfect but you are unique!

The Full Little Box of Thought #3 – MOVE!
I was looking through my subscriptions one day and found a video that is so relatable to almost every human being. I rather you watched the video first…
Right, now that you have seen it I assume that you can relate. With me I can really relate to this video. So I am driving my wheelchair down the road or going through a shopping centre and somebody just stops right in front of me (and may I just add that I am going at some speed, luckily my chair ‘can’ instantly stop but…). Why!? Do you want me to damage the back of your legs at speed? I really don’t think so because my chair is heavy and can damage you, just ask any of my unfortunate friends who may have ‘experienced’ the pain.
And if I accidently do, don’t look at me and wonder why I did run into the back of you… you’re the one who inconveniently decided to stop right in front of me!! Just MOVE!
Think before you decide to stand in the most inconvenient place as you are not the only person in the world! Thank you…

The Full Little Box of Thought #2 – WHY LIE!? (Obvious Lying)
We are back again talking about my ‘favourite’ website in
the whole world… IMVU! Now, lying isn’t good and you shouldn’t do it but we are
not here talking about everyday lying. We are here to talk about pointless /
obvious lying.
Like usual we are not going to mention names because we
don’t want to name and shame people because I may seem as bad as them. I have
many cool friends on IMVU but today we are going to be talking about someone I
met recently and it’s like I have known them for ages now.
When we talk on IMVU, sometimes they have to attend to
certain things… can’t say what because they read my blog so can’t give
specifically. So they go and sometimes they take ages to come back! When on
IMVU I only talk to 2-3 people at a time so I can share my time equally rather
than making people wait. However, some people don’t have that same motto and
lie to seem as if that’s not the case. Let me explain…
Just imagine you are on Facebook and have 2 chats open
and don’t share your time equally between them. You talk to one person more
than the other and when the person you are not talking much to messages you
wondering where you are, instead of saying the truth that you are talking to
someone else, you end up making up some lie which makes no sense and you might
as well of said the truth!

The Full Little Box of Care #1 – ARE YOU OKAY?
Today I ask you… are you okay? Most of you will say that you are okay but are you really okay? I only ask this as some people say that they are okay when there actually not.
Some people do it to make the other not to feel so concerned or don’t want them to know. Even though that may seem like a good idea at the time, overall it’s not. If you are not okay then you need to say so because bad things such as suicide can happen. And that’s due to people being quiet and keeping it to themselves.
Two things to take away from this short post!
1. Friends, family, even strangers… if you see someone that you may or may not know and they are looking down or upset, ask them ‘Are you okay?’ and if they answer back with ‘yeah I’m okay’ or something along those lines then ask it again and show some concern. Even give them a smile because that is a good cure!
2. Those who are ‘okay’… don’t hide it because it’s only making you worse. Never feel like you are annoying the person who asks if you are okay as they are more than likely wanting to hear that you are not okay than you to lie.
Are you okay?

The Full Little Box of Truth #2 - YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
Right before we start this post just a few things to mention! First of all it’s coming out today because I am off to New York tomorrow and there is no way I am stressing in the morning! And because of this there may not be a post next week Wednesday because I travel back that day and who knows what I will be doing that week. I will try and get one out Friday or even Thursday evening depending on how tired I may be. Just to give you the heads up! :) Now onto the post…
Was on that ‘lovely’ website called IMVU yesterday and I was in a chat room with a really good friend. We were talking and somebody randomly comes in and says ‘I’m ugly’ or something a long them lines. Then my friend says ‘You’re beautiful as everyone is’ (don’t quote me Vic but it was a long them lines… right?) and I was like ‘this is going in a new post’ and here we are!
Everyone is beautiful! Whatever you may say or what someone may tell you… you are beautiful. Don’t let haters bring you down, defeat them by spreading your beauty and ignoring them. Wow that really sounded cheesy, forget what I just said and go out there and be positive about yourself.
Inspiring with a difference! :)
Also, if you want to you can read a post I wrote quite a while ago talking about the same thing. It’s another take on it so read it if you wish.

The Full Little Box of Respect #1 – One World Week
So this week has been One World Week and to my understanding it’s where all types’ of faiths come together and celebrate and appreciate each other. I just wanted to say something about it as I did something this week and I wish to share it with you all.
Sunday just gone I did an interfaith walk in my hometown. We went to a Buddhist Temple, a Catholic Church, a Gudwara, a Hindu Temple and some more! It was great getting to experience and visit all these holy places and what made it better was experiencing it with other faith groups!! And it made me think… why can’t it be like this every day? Why can’t we just respect each other daily? There is too much hate in this world for no reason.
All who reads this I want you all to go out there and respect everyone like how you wanted to be respected. Let’s start today and make a new tomorrow… no… start today and make a new future! We can all do it as long as we all put some effort into it!
From today let us be One World! Not just for a week but forever…

The Full Little Box of Thought #1 –Ignoring!
Recently I have been going on this site called IMVU. For those who don’t know what that is, it’s basically a social avatar talking simulator? Search it up and you will know what I mean!
On IMVU they have this feature called ‘Chat Now’ and this is when you are paired up with a random stranger. I have two problems with this but today we are going to be talking about ignoring. I started using the site seven years ago but took a five year break because… I can’t remember actually and I have returned to it this year.
Now my problem is this, I seem to make a really ‘good’ friend and share my story of being disabled and it all goes well. Then next day it’s like, ‘who are you?’ or they don’t even want to talk to me again! That is beyond rude!
How can you be all nice a friendly then ignore me completely? It’s just not right. Say something rude to me, cus my mother etc etc but don’t ignore me. I can literally deal with almost every other type of rudeness but when you ignore me that just gets to me. All I am trying to say is don’t ignore people because you probably wouldn’t like it if someone did it too you. Unless they are rude to you in the first place then you can ignore them! I will let you off for that reason…

The Full Little Box of Truth #1 – LAUGH!
Well this post is about…
Unfortunately, it’s not about cute babies laughing but it is about laughing. Here is a short personal story about laughing.
Recently, I went to Birmingham which is a 2hr drive from where I live and I struggle with long car journeys as I get severe leg pain. Going there was okay surprisingly but coming back was hard. I kept moving left and right but nothing was helping.
Until a song came on and it was so random it made me laugh and then it made my friend laugh. Then we started dancing to it and before you knew it we were home!
I guess it true when they say that ‘Laughter is the best Medicine’ because there is proof! I’m not saying that laughter cures everything but it cures somethings. Being miserable or if you really need to be distracted by something e.g. pain, really helps if you laugh.
Just smile, laugh and be happy! Life is to short…

The Full Little Box of Inspiration #1 – Skydiving – Giving up!?
If I can do this…
…then you can do a lot. And before you say ‘that’s just jumping out a plane’, well their sir / madam you are wrong. It wasn’t just jumping out a plane, there was more to it.
Back in January an opportunity came up for me to do a skydive for charity and for ages I have always wanted to do this. So I went for it! I emailed them back and said that I would be interested in doing so and they replied saying that it would be good. Now because I have a disability I decided to email the actual skydiving airfield about me having a disability and if I could actually do it. They answered saying that they didn’t have the right harness for me to do it.
This was very disappointing news so I emailed back to the charity saying the outcome and they were also disappointed but they told me not to worry. Now I could have given up and left it but I was actually determined to do this. So I went on Google and searched for disability skydiving airfields. I got to be honest I probably emailed just under 10 airfields… and almost every company said no and couldn’t help me or didn’t get back to me.
I might as well of given up as it was wasting time emailing potential airfields and getting the same response every time. But I didn’t!
Back on Google I went. This time I decided to search for places outside the UK! In the end I emailed a place in Ohio and Australia. Guess what? Both of them were able to do it as they had the right harness for me!
I decided to go with Ohio as it would be cheaper to fly there and a shorter journey. But wait? Who would go with me??? My mum, who usually goes with me to places, can’t anymore as of circumstances at home and many friends and family either work or go to university. No hope? I asked a friend who I have known for ages and he was able to book off work and come with me.
Wondering about travel? Luckily I knew somebody who would be able to help me and did. The rest could be considered boring but I went in July, stayed for 10 days and jumped out a plane at 14,000ft and in the end raised 2600 pounds for the charity.
Now if I had given up on the first hurdle, I wouldn’t have had an amazing experience that not everyone does and that 2600 pounds wouldn’t have gone to charity.
What did we learn today?
Don’t give up and always push forward as amazing new experiences are there to be taken.
