A Personal Message

My life has been has been a scrambled egg. So many hardships i have had within my 19years of experience from middle school till today. Everyone struggles differently and you should never compare yourself with other but try to help someone who actually has faced the same circumstance as you.

I always keep GOD as my number one priority. He is the one who protects me from one night to the other. Depending on him and praying to keep me safe makes me at ease that i don't have to worry about how my day would go. To whoever is reading this know that you are loved and treasured by many people you don't know. I want to conclude this case study by quoting a saying by William McRaven a US Navy Admiral. He says "If You Want to Change the World, Start Off by Making Your Bed’".
