As I watched the movie entitled, Every Child is Special, I felt pity for him and for those people around him. Usually people see the disability of someone but poor in appreciating the goodness you had. They keep judging, discriminating of a person who has defected inside or in outside appearance. Dyslexia is a state in the brain that makes hard to an individual to read, write and spell.

 

Ishaan is a good boy from India, a kid that observed his world in a simple thing that he saw in streets, nature, or in his experiences. He appreciated and accepted what he can do for himself. A kid experienced bullying not only in his friends but also in his teacher who called him idiot. Ishaan is an observant kid, he always observing every behavior that interrupts him. Despite of his mental disability, I’m proud on him in the talent that he had. Being alone is one of the hardest parts of his life; because of his braveness he can handle it as long he enjoyed his life as a kid.

 

To have a condition of Dyslexia Syndrome is hard to tell everyone, they don’t know how to appreciate and understand what it is. Pressure and trauma makes Ishaan’s move hard for him to focus because he wants to enjoy his life like a normal kid. He expanded his mind by exploring what his imagined in his life. Imagination sometimes destructed us. But for Ishaan, his imagination makes him happy because that’s the way of being free. We also experienced what Ishaan’s experiences, being gifted, special and blessed. But sometimes we forgot to enjoy due of a problem, broken family and others that cause of being alone.

 

Teacher Ram, is one of those people who has kindness in the heart, willing to render his help for the sake of needy, especially Ishaan who needs this attention. But he cannot get that attention even in his parents. For the eyes of others he is an idiot and useless, they being judgmental and always discriminate Ishaan. But they don’t what Ishaan’s feelings, he is a good boy in his own way, they can’t see the goodness of him but his abnormalities. Everything was changed when Ishaan’s get interested in painting and give opportunities of what could him happy and enjoy what he is doing through printing and arts. And in that way, he felt so special all people around him are proud especially his parents and teacher Ram Shankar.

 

In this movie I learned how to appreciate simple things. And I understand now the case of those people like Ishaan that has disability. All people have uniqueness and capability. Do not judge and especially appreciate them even in simple things.
