Some encounters stay with you long after the moment has passed.
Our visit to the FCT School of the Blind in Jabi was a reminder that every child has a story still unfolding, a world of possibilities ahead, and potential that deserves to be recognised beyond their present circumstances.
It reminded us that disability does not diminish a child's worth, dreams or right to experience a world that makes room for them to learn, grow and thrive.
Sometimes, the first step towards meaningful change is choosing to see beyond what is immediately visible and recognising what is possible.
As we wrap up the week, we carry this reminder with us: every child deserves to be seen for more than their circumstances and supported in becoming all they can be.
Because the first step may look small, but what it sets in motion can be far greater.
