Give Everyone a Gift | The Power of Disabilities
When I was in middle school, my grandma used to tell me something every time she dropped me off at school: “Give everyone a gift!” At the time, I thought she was being silly. What did she mean? Was I supposed to carry around wrapped presents for everyone I met?
Now, I understand. She wasn’t talking about physical gifts. She meant something much deeper—giving kindness in small, meaningful ways. A smile, a compliment, a heartfelt thank you, holding the door open for someone—these are the gifts she was talking about. These tiny acts of kindness send out good energy, raise our vibration, and touch the souls of others, even if we don’t realize it in the moment.
I’ve come to believe that every interaction we have leaves an imprint. When we eventually cross over, we will be shown every moment we have impacted someone, no matter how small.
The Profound Impact of Disabilities
This brings me to something fascinating that Dolores Cannon spoke about—the spiritual role of disabilities. When a person with a disability enters a room, they naturally elicit a response from others. Most of us feel something—compassion, admiration, or simply a silent wish for their well-being.
Now, imagine someone with a disability entering a room with 50 people, every day, for their entire life. That means they are touching the hearts of 50 souls every single day. They are shifting energy, influencing emotions, and creating an impact far greater than we often acknowledge.
According to Dolores Cannon, souls who choose to come to Earth with severe disabilities are often clearing karmic energy at an accelerated rate. In her work, she described how the line to incarnate on Earth is already long—but the line to come here with a disability is even longer. These souls are often taking on a deeply spiritual role, affecting countless others simply by existing in their truth.
It’s a perspective that shifts the way we see disabilities—not as limitations, but as powerful forces of transformation in the lives of those around them.
Giving the Gift of Presence
So today, take my grandmother’s advice: give everyone a gift. Let it be kindness, a smile, a moment of genuine presence. And when you cross paths with someone who carries a visible challenge, recognize the unseen gifts they are giving to the world every day.
We are all here to learn, to teach, and to elevate each other. Some do it in ways we expect, and others in ways we could never fully understand.
Serious food for thought. ❤️
