This Illustration represents the balance of the creative and the challenging sides of dyslexia (and every learning differences). It’s based on my own experiences dealing with dyslexia and dyscalculia, yes it has made certain parts of my life really difficult trough-out my life, however, I have learned and became stronger because of it, and used that to create as well as evolve, learn and support others as well as my self. I look at dyslexia as a gift, it is all about understanding yourself and acceptance, those with a learning difference think and observe the world differently than the way the society/school system desire. It takes time to understand this and allow oneself to find your own way in life, find your balance and choose to look at everything in life from different perspectives.
