White River Area Agency on Aging
606 Sylamore Ave Mountain View, AR 72560 |
In keeping with the prevailing attitude that almost is good enough, the Council on Aging of all people tried to make do. They built a ramp to the door and then didn't give us enough room to open the door and get in the building without falling down the steps.
In the first picture, you can see the handicap sticker on my dashboard, yet another label we are forced to display that sets us apart, marks us as not good enough. I'm surprised we don't have to sew a star on our shirts. Might as well. Can you imagine every single day of your life, you must be reminded that you don't fit in, you are not normal, that you are less than? Just once I'd like to hang, oh maybe Mardi Gras beads or fuzzy dice on my rear view mirror instead of my label marking me as inferior to everyone else. Just once.
