D\u00e5 och d\u00e5 sk\u00e4nker livet oss \u00f6gonblick som formar v\u00e5ra perspektiv, v\u00e4gleder oss i v\u00e5ra handlingar och f\u00f6rdjupar v\u00e5r beslutsamhet. Idag bes\u00f6kte jag n\u00e5gra v\u00e4nner p\u00e5\u00a0Florida Business Enterprise (BEP)-konferens<\/a>\u00a0som organiserades av Division Of Blind Services h\u00e4r i Orlando, fick jag ett s\u00e5dant \u00f6gonblick, som\u00a0Tom Sullivan<\/a>\u00a0intog scenen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tom Sullivan f\u00f6ddes 1947 och var inte bara en sk\u00e5despelare utan ocks\u00e5 ett exempel p\u00e5 motst\u00e5ndskraft. Han blev blind strax efter f\u00f6dseln p\u00e5 grund av Prematuritetsretinopati.<\/a> Toms liv var allt annat \u00e4n vanligt. Hans resa, som skildras i hans sj\u00e4lvbiografiska bok och film \"Om du kunde se vad jag h\u00f6r<\/a>\" talar sitt tydliga spr\u00e5k om att \u00f6vervinna motg\u00e5ngar. Tom satsade p\u00e5 musik, sk\u00e5despeleri, f\u00f6rfattarskap och motivationstal, och f\u00f6r varje steg krossade han samh\u00e4llets missuppfattningar om synneds\u00e4ttning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jag v\u00e4xte upp p\u00e5 80-talet och Toms ber\u00e4ttelse v\u00e4ckte djup genklang hos mitt yngre jag. Medan hans bok \u00e4r ett vittnesb\u00f6rd om hans okuvliga anda och orubbliga beslutsamhet, gav filmatiseringen liv \u00e5t hans ber\u00e4ttelse i levande detalj. N\u00e4r jag s\u00e5g den som ton\u00e5ring var det inte bara underh\u00e5llning. Det var en bekr\u00e4ftelse p\u00e5 att synskadan inte var en begr\u00e4nsning utan en m\u00f6jlighet att se v\u00e4rlden p\u00e5 ett annat s\u00e4tt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jag f\u00f6ddes 1967 av kubanska invandrarf\u00f6r\u00e4ldrar och m\u00f6tte mina egna utmaningar. Toms resa fungerade som en ledstj\u00e4rna som v\u00e4gledde mig genom stunder av tvivel och ingav mig tron p\u00e5 att jag kunde \u00f6vervinna alla hinder. Musik, tro och senare teknik blev v\u00e4gar genom vilka jag kanaliserade min energi, mina passioner och mina ambitioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Idag, som pappa, make, f\u00f6rfattare, VD f\u00f6r Pneuma Solutions,<\/a> och motivationstalare, ser jag tillbaka med tacksamhet. Tacksamhet f\u00f6r mentorer som Tom, vars ber\u00e4ttelser blev kompassen p\u00e5 min resa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Det \u00e4r min innerliga \u00f6nskan att \"Om du kunde se vad jag h\u00f6r\" \u00e5terintroduceras i v\u00e4rlden med hj\u00e4lp av syntolkning. \u00c4ven om b\u00f6cker har sin unika charm har filmer, s\u00e4rskilt i v\u00e5r multimediarika tid, en o\u00f6vertr\u00e4ffad f\u00f6rm\u00e5ga att ber\u00f6ra hj\u00e4rtan och inspirera till f\u00f6r\u00e4ndring. En s\u00e5 kraftfull ber\u00e4ttelse som Toms f\u00f6rtj\u00e4nar att delas, upplevas och hyllas av m\u00e5nga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Att lyssna till honom i dag var inte bara ett \u00f6gonblick av v\u00f6rdnad, det var en harmonisk blandning av tidigare reflektioner och framtida ambitioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tack, Tom, f\u00f6r att du har varit ledstj\u00e4rnan p\u00e5 min resa och f\u00f6r otaliga andra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
