Detour camp was held last year. It talked about embracing life’s unexpected turns. The said camp awakens the sleeping competitive selves of those who attended. Different inspiring stories have been told by the guest speakers. One of these speakers was Mrs. Rachel Harrison. Life seems so full and happy without challenges until she found out that her son has been diagnosed with autism. She went through self-pity and the number of times she cried was countless. A doctor reminded her to be strong for the sake of her son and mustered all the courage she needs to face all odds.
She decided to enliven her life for her son and started opening up different projects for those who are in the same case as her son. Zambawood was the product of her perseverance and her heart to serve people with disabilities. “Our goal is to address the needs of people with autism and other disabilities to lead into productive, purposeful and sustainable lives through skills training programmes.” (http://www.zambawood.com/artcentre/) The said place offer fun activities such as farming, painting, cooking, housekeeping, art crafting and surfing.The place is adorned with nature. It was said that the place was perfect for recuperating and refreshing.
Having the almost same situation as Mrs. Harrison, I was inspired by her testimony. It is true that quitting before you even gather your courage would make your situation even worse. God has given us life so that we can live it to the fullest. I can’t wait to finally visit Zambawood and experience its promising nature. See you soon #ZambaWood #julyanscafe #julyansfarm
