"Do you Believe in Miracles?" 

Nearly  every American alive in 1980 will claim they remember hearing thes words as the US Olympic  Hockey Team pulled off one of the  most stunning David vs. Golliath (sp) feats in the history of sports.  I am personally convinced I saw it when it it happened (the initial victory) as I was on  my way home for a cllege break that day and caught the very end of the game.  However,  I may have just seen the replay so many times that it is  blazed into my psyche that I indeed  saw it as it happened.  No matter some 32 years later I still believe .....

I believe that ...All people with disabilities have the right to participate  in their  communities to the fullest extent possible.
I believe... that attitudes  of and toward people with disabilities are far more critical  realms for change than any curb, set of steps, or unreadable scrap of twxt.
I believe... that like the US Hockey Team people with resolve working together can, and do everyday, make barriers disappear opening up unknown possibilities.
Mostly I believe that if we focus on justice for all, freedom of choice, equality of opportunity with every fiber of our being for long enough--then at some point before this game we call life comes to an end... when someone says "do you believe in mariacles?"  I shall respond --like those announcers on that fateful day)>

YES!!!!!
