I’ve always wanted to be able to speak another language. I have just recently bought Berlitz Spanish premier language learning system but have came to the conclusion that the only way to truly learn another language is to be fully emerged in the language. This means I must move down to a Spanish speaking country to learn the language as well as I wish too.
With this being said it would be great to get away from the image I have here as being the kid who has the brain injury (even though most people don’t know I have one but people talk).
But as excited as I am to potentially start a new life, I worry. With my brain injury will I be able to learn a new language? Please let me know if you feel the same way as I, with anything that you may want to conquer but are at the same time, scared to try because you might fail.
Having said this I remind my self why most people don’t even know that I have a brain injury. It was that attitude of fearlessness that I posses that made me run on the treadmill when people starred at me and I would fall because I was learning how to run again.
Having a brain injury you cannot be scared because you will never achieve true happiness. You may think that you are happy but you always think about
…what if I had taken that leap, the leap into the unknown…..
