Not whole first mean less

To be whole without all of the pieces

Do you have to have both arms to feel complete?
To have to have them to compete!
Do you have to have to both 
 legs to run?
To have them to have some fun!

Maybe you have no eye to see!
It doesn't mean you only see half of me. 
Maybe you have lost some fingers upon you hand!
It doesn't mean you can't build castles in the sand.  

Do you have to be whole to be someone around us?
*Venus De milo no arms but it was a plus. 
Just on over view that you can be everything;
Wether you have all your pieces or half nothing. 

It is the soul that you have inside;
It is a higher power that is what is inside our mind. 
It's something that GOD gives us the strength;
It can not be measured by any length. 

You only feel as was you feel you are;
These are not handicap people by far. 
The do the same things that we my do;
Even though they have less than you. 

Kudos to those that bear the wheel chair sign;
When I just have a bruise or a cut; I keep you in mind. 
Respect the things that we have; we abuse everyday;
For we want so much and a lot we pray. 

The Venus De Milo was considered the most beautiful woman for thousands of years;
Even though she has no arms as it appears. 
For her beauty is thought of a mystery. 
She is a whole part of our history. 

*Although the Aphrodite of Milos is widely renowned for the mystery of her missing arms enough evidence remains to prove that the right arm of the goddess was lowered across the torso with the right hand resting on the raised left knee so the sliding drapery wrapped around the hips and legs could be held in place.[citation needed] There is a filled hole below the right breast that originally contained a metal tenon that would have supported the separately carved right arm.

The left arm was held at just below the eye level of the statue above a herm while holding an apple. The right side of the statue is more carefully worked and finished than the left side or back, indicating that the statue was intended to be seen mainly as a profile from its right. The left hand would have held the apple up into the air further back inside the niche the statue was set in. When the left hand was still attached, it would have been clear to an observer that the goddess was looking at the apple she held up in her left hand.

The ones with less can do more. For they only drive to prove to themselves that they are the same with less.
