B. Since my childhood, I have seen the struggle of my cousin because of her disability as she can not walk on her own and she uses a wheelchair to walk and do her daily tasks. At first, she used to have depression whenever people questioned her abilities and her future and they used to judge her on the basis of her disability but with the passage of time and with the support of her family she is now able to ignore people's opinion about her. Instead of focusing on her disability she started to explore other sides of her personality especially her creative side that was painting. She used to lock herself in a room and paint. Over time she realized that she is not a disabled person but a differently able person and from that realization, there was no going back for her. Now she is not only a successful painter but also a motivational speaker. So instead of self-pity she decided to live with the disability with dignity and set an example for the rest of differently abled people.
