[Blindtlk] An update on my independence

[Hyde, David W. (ESC)]

Keep taking small steps. Independence is never something that you just wake up and have. For everyone, it is a continuum. An article called The Nature of Independence says it much better than I can. Finally, when you get lost, and you will, don't give up. Try to get lost and find your way out of it. I've been traveling with a cane for fifty years, and always try to build in time for mistakes.

Subject: [Blindtlk] An update on my independence

Dear Members,

I'd like to give all of you an update on my independence.  I began my first week of classes for the Spring semester at UCF.  
My mom dropped me off bright and early on Monday morning.  After rehearsing the rddte to and from class two times I found my to class in the Communications building on my own.  On Tuesday I found my out of the Bernet Honors on my own.  These are small steps toward improving my independence.
