First completely blind shopping adventure in a couple of months with guide dog Arabella! HD

For those of you who are new to my channel I am 100% completely blind, I have no light perception, and I wear prosthetic eyes on top of my small natural eyes. I have been completely blind for 13 years this December and have been partially blind since the age of three. Over the past 13 years I have learned so much about myself and what I’m capable of achieving. I thought 13 years ago my life was over, being a mother at the time of two small babies, I thought I was never going to be able to be that confident mommy again with the freedom I once had before. As you can see/hear through this video and through all of my videos on my channel, you will see that I was so wrong. God has truly transform my eyesight through giving me vision in so many other beautiful ways. It did take me a wild to come to terms with my loss, but then God open the eyes of my heart to see that even though I lost my eyesight, I have gained so much more insight and vision through my other senses but more importantly through the eyes of my heart. I know I make these adventures and my blind life look so easy and joyful, but underneath all the confidence and joy, is a girl who has to fight each day through my fears, and choose joy through it all. Like many of you have heard me say and continue to say, Joy is more than my name, it is a choice, an attitude of the heart. I am not ever about to allow my weaknesses or blindness to defeat me or keep me from living. In fact, through the darkness and the greatest storms in my life, through all the fear, tears, and pain, I have truly found more joy, contentment, and peace than you could ever even imagine, think, or dream. It’s all about having a positive mindset and perspective, and never losing hope. I have always been so headstrong and determined, keeping the eyes of my heart focused on where I’m going, not where I am. As long as God is leading the way, with my beautiful guiding angel walking and leading me in life, being mommies eyes and giving me freedom, I can overcome all obstacles in front of me. In addition to God and my beautiful Arabella Faith, I am truly so grateful for wonderful people in this world who I encounter every time I take that large step of faith into the unknown on my adventures. On this fun shopping adventure, I’m so grateful for Jordan, my Uber driver, Jill, the Petsmart employee, and for Crystal, the Michael’s employee. I’m always a little anxious when I start these adventures just because it’s so much work for me doing it all independently with my guide dog completely blind, while filming and navigating LOL, but because of these amazing individuals, they truly warm my heart and made the whole experience so much brighter! This is the beauty I get to experience every day when traveling alone. I get emotional just thinking about these beautiful people, they are angels on my journey. I know God places these people in my life and I want to show the world that there is still so many amazing caring people around
