Hey everyone! So today is World Down Syndrome Day, and I thought I'd spread the word! If you wanna do the same, put on those two different socks, take a picture and share'm with the #worlddownsyndromeday!

To get serious for a moment, I know some people with Down Syndrome who are treated so much less, or like they're extremely fragile, just because of something stupid as an extra chromosome.

But! There has also been a lot of change over the past couple of years (where I live, at least, don't have experience about the rest of the world) and a lot of that is thanks to a TV-show called 'Down the road'. It shows just how funny, loving and kind they are, how strong they are, and that they don't want or need to be treated differently to be happy. If anyone knows Dutch, I'll link it for you here!

As for my conclusion, here are my socks for today! ;)

Have a nice day!!

Ketika semua orang sedang heboh-hebohnya membahas peduli lah dengan orang-orang sekitar yang memiliki mental disorders kalian jangan lupa bahwa tepat setiap tanggal 21 maret ini ada peringatan hari yang selalu membuat tenaga saya bertambah ketika melihat wajah mereka "HAPPY WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY" Mereka itu unik, mereka sama dengan kita sama sama butuh kasih sayang. Mereka berhak mendapatkan pendidikan. Jangan pernah menjadikan mereka bahan candaan ataupun menghardik mereka, karena mereka sangat istimewa. Mungkin saya akan sedikit membahas apa sebenarnya down syndrome itu? Merupakan kelainan genetik yang dikenal sebagai trisomi, karena individu yang mendapat sindrom down memiliki kelebihan satu kromosom. Mereka mempunyai tiga kromosom 21 dimana orang normal hanya memiliki dua saja. Kelebihan kromosom ini akan mengubah keseimbangan genetik tubuh dan mengakibatkan perubahan karakteristik dan kemampuan intelektual, serta dalam fungsi fisiologis tubuh (Pathol, 2003). Cintai mereka, karena Tuhan menciptakan setiap manusia dengan keunikannya masing-masing.
