AGILITY
Agility is a key attribute for one to have; it is the ability to adapt and respond to change. "My name is Salome I am a person living with a disability and I worked on this elephant’s pattern. It took me six weeks to complete. By the time I got paralyzed my life changed. At first, it was a big challenge to get a job and make an income but I knew I had to make changes to keep moving. Once I was introduced to cross-stitching, I fell in love with it. I completely enjoyed working on this pattern because my fingers were used to it and I was able to work fast. I received payment for this piece and I bought a commercial deep fryer after I opened a fast-food café to generate more income for my family."
