They said she couldn’t. They thought she wouldn’t. Yet she believed.
She believed in herself even when no one else did.
Day after day, she put 110 percent in every task she completed, her work, and her craft.
Day after day, she received criticism.
Day after day, she received judgment.
She took the words within each critique to improve.
She used the judgement as motivation.
She didn’t hesitate to take on the world, with faith and hope helping her every step of the way.
She believed, for she had nothing to prove to the world,
But everything to prove to herself.
