Quotes that inspire Lynnea in her ACC Journey:
"My Friends have made the story of my life. In a thousand ways, they have turned my limitations into beautiful privileges." -Helen Keller
"Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me--to keep me from exalting myself! Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong." -2nd Cor. 12:7-10 NASB
"If you have a positive attitude and constantly strive to give your best effort, eventually you will overcome your immediate problems and find you are ready for greater challenges." -Pat Riley
Quotes about ACC from Lynnea:
"Music is brain-food to any and everyone but it feeds the ACCer with different neural pathways to help them along"
"When I saw the videos of myself as a child, from before I was actually diagnosed with ACC, the brain disorder I've had my entire life, my heart went out to her. I saw the lost look on her face as she was trying to run and play and all her friends left her behind. I saw the sadness as she threw a ball horribly. My heart broke. I wanted to cry for that little girl that I once was. I wanted to hug her, hold her in my arms and let her know everything would turn out okay. I wish I could tell her that she's not alone. I can't do that for myself, but I can do that for others. I can tell them everything will be alright, support and encourage them. That is what I want to do, what I will do."
