I had an unusual conversation with a woman about physical limitations. Nancy suffered   31  a serious disease and she could no longer walk. She spent her   32   (wake) hours in a wheelchair.

She asked me, “Do you want to know   34   reason for living?”

“What is it?” I wondered.

“To liberate people. To set them free. Before I got my wheelchair,” she explained, “I had trouble getting around. Now I can go places! However I can free people, I want to do   35  .”
