Sabrina’s Beach, an accessible beach where volunteers go out on Saturdays and assist people with disabilities into the water. Here’s what Sabrina had to say.
Ali was so fun, flirty, carefree and confident that I could see she would put a lot of people at ease with her humorous profile. So, I decided to edit it and plagiarize it to see what kind of reaction I would get using her words and MY photos.
Just a few hours later, I started getting responses! They came, and they came, and they came in like they were never going to stop! So, I wanted to tell you thank you for inspiring me again to look at how I wrote my profile and re-write it because everything that she said I could relate to and was identical to how I felt.
“Sometimes we just need another person who is in our situation to show us how to make our self-whole again.”
Sabrina agreed that we could use her letter and her experiment to let others know that maybe they too can take a look at how they write their profile, and maybe it is something that they can get some feedback on or this will inspire them to write their first one!
So here is our offer to you dear PUSHLiving.com readers:
