Disabled people are the most important part of our society and they should be treated with justice. Society should deliver to them according to their needs. Treating them equally is not the solution because their needs and capabilities are different. I understand people with disabilities live in this world and want to be able to live like any other person. Not differently than anyone else. They want to be able to go out to do shopping‚ have fun with people‚ study in any situation‚ and maybe work as well

I think crying in men is a mark of weakness‚ it make men defenseless‚ and it can’t solve the problems. First of all‚ men easily get hurt and look weak when they are crying. According to Dennis Thompson‚ “... the tears blur your vision and leaves you defenseless.” That means when men crying‚ they are weak‚ because they don’t have enough

that great people are seldom appreciated while they are alive. I agree with quote and many other who say we don’t realize what we have until its gone. Many people in today’s society are very critical. They pick out the negatives in people’s actions instead of praising the good. They take actions for granite and expect the best.
