Today am grateful for all that I've achieved, many more to come, I'm grateful for me, my face, yes my face, some years back (2013) I had a head injury which resulted to a crack on my skull, from my left eye socket down to the back of my head and could be noticed as a dent just over the left brow, I could have died, I felt life leaving me, but I told myself I had to stay alive as helpless as I was, the pain, oh... It was like a thunder blow with a flash of light.. My perfect face was gone it took me time to get used to my new face, it was a transformation, I couldn't cope with making my hair because of constant headaches and had to do a big chop, admist all this Doctors advised I stay away from school for a year but because I was determined to succeed I went about my normal life, yes it was difficult to cope, sometimes I got real slow because each step I took was like some1 was pounding yam on my head, but couldn't just remain idle, sometimes when am all over the moon happy with a jolly heart, I get comments or expressions like "why are you frowning", why you keep face like that", " or the way you keep your face looks scary... Many a times I give a broad smile as my response and tell myself they know nothing of where am coming from and where am heading, I accept how I looked. I groomed my big chop went blonde remained natural because I began to see life differently. Today 6 years later, I look back and realise I have a lot to be grateful for. # gratefulheart
