I come from a small city where most of the people don’t have big dreams or desires. Where everybody settles down where they are at and don’t even try to strike for the best.

I couldn’t move or feel my legs, I could barely move my feet, and I wasn't able to sit up. I was so confused on what was happening, then I heard someone talking to me and asking me if I knew what day it was and if I remembered what happened. I didn't know what exact day it was but I remembered all the pain I was going through. My nurse informed me of what happened and why I was in the State I was in.

No one accompanied me, and I kept thinking that sometimes, I was living the most sorrowful life anyone could ever imagine. There were even times when I found myself screaming at my non-existing mother for giving birth to me!
