“I started to get involved with politics, and found interest in humanitarian world problems. I realized I wanted to be here to be able to make a change. I decided I wanted to live. I finally understood that I was valuable to this world and that I could offer so much to others. I’m still growing and learning to love myself, but I never want to stop trying to be a better, happier and healthier me.”
