When the heart speaks: deaf-mute twin models shared the secrets of happiness

Deaf-mute people usually awaken pity and compassion in the soul. But these cheerful sisters cause only a smile and positive emotions. Beautiful, self-confident and cheerful, they cannot express their feelings in words, but they turn their hearts to those who have given up and are disappointed in themselves.

How girls deprived of the ability to speak and hear manage to always be on a positive wave, learn from our material.Twins Hermon and Heroda Berhane (Hermon and Heroda Berhane) became deaf-mutes at the age of 7.

36-year—old sisters in 2015 started a blog "Being_Her", the main purpose of which is to show how important it is to love yourself.The girls' family was forced to flee from the Civil War-ravaged Eritrea (East Africa) in the 1980s.Models inspire people who are insecure due to disability and ridicule of others, as well as those who have defeated cancer and all those who lack self-confidence.

In their blog, the twins talk about fashion, lifestyle, and the importance of accepting and loving yourself for who you are.The fashion world is not the most tolerant environment, so girls write about how difficult it is for them every day.Beauties want to inspire people to believe in themselves. There are a lot of misconceptions about people with disabilities in the world, and few people pay attention to their talents and abilities.

Girls well remember the sounds of bells and birds singing before they became deaf. But, unfortunately, they also remember the explosions, gunshots and screams during the civil war in Eritrea. The sisters were often hidden in the bathroom, in the basement, with neighbors to protect them from bombing and shelling.The reason why Hermon and Herod lost their hearing and the gift of speech is unknown. Parents took the girls to doctors in different countries of the world, but none of them could help them.

At first, it was not easy for the little ones to understand what happened, but over time they learned sign language and learned to love the world and themselves.The sisters say that they perceive the environment with the help of other senses: taste, touch, smell. They have these perceptions much sharper than ordinary people.The twins traveled with their parents to several countries. They lived in the USA and then moved to the UK. Mom tried to do everything possible to cure the deafness of her beloved daughters, but these attempts did not bring results.

Acceptance and love for the world and for oneself is what makes people truly happy. Deafness does not make a person inferior — the main thing is that the heart is not deaf.
