It’s what most can not comprehend going through. A true challenge, even the strongest couldn’t handle. You feel depleted.. find the escape, they would look for the quickest route out. But me, yeah I’m a bit more fierce and determined. I take it head on, and yeah you could say I don’t like to back down from a challenge. It takes a lot, crying through the struggle. I’m holding on, trying not to throw the towel in. So no matter what’s thrown at me, I always come out winning. Full of inspiration and resilience. Big on the love of the lessons to be learnt.

I’m her, I’m a warrior. That’s me the one that’s was born to fight, skin thick as it gets.
