I was told “dream doesn’t require money” and ended up realizing “money holds the power to fulfill dreams. I lived in both phrases. My father gave me wings. Though belonging to a poor middle class family, he taught me to dream big. Giving up is not in my dictionary. 

So called people around us spread sympathy when we fall down and take us down when we arise. 

Just like everyone, I went through lots of ups and downs and still didn’t lose hope. I stood taller, made my weaknesses into strength, fought for my freedom and found my goal. Exploring is in my blood, whether it may be a place or people’s true color. So I thought why not inspire others to dream and explore. 

Earlier I dreamt of becoming independent. But now the dream has become both independent and living in peace because independence without peace is worthless.
