Welcome to
Living an Unordinary Life Blog
Hello! My name is Boon Keng.
I used to dream of living an ordinary life, unaffected by my muscular dystrophy condition. Things went quite well initially, but as my condition progressed, I struggled to meet my expectations of being "normal". Eventually, I hit rock bottom, and I felt lost and hopeless in life.
It took me a while to realise that I was trying too hard to be "normal". I wasn't living my own life; I was yearning for somebody else's ordinary life. It was important for me to embrace my differences and limitations. I have to start living an unordinary life!

Starting with Nothing
I wrote the original post in 2017 on LUL's Facebook page. I struggled to find my footing after embarking on my new journey. Now, seven years later, I am in a much better place but still have difficulty staying on course. As I edit and repost this post, it serves to remind me of the change in perspective I need whenever I feel stuck.
