A woman of excellence!

story
I grew up with inferiority complex, I felt I wasn’t good enough like the others, I wouldn’t try to get better grades I was comfortable with what I had, because I felt I wasn’t going to be applauded...i was bullied by my age mate, beaten that day and even had some injuries, I couldn’t talk because I knew I wasn’t going to be believed, the only person who would have believed me (my dad) was bed ridden because of a partial stroke, I felt rejected...a day came I was almost raped, I couldn’t say it to anyone because I knew I wasn’t going to be believed...I lived with low self esteem for years, it continued till my University days and I was bullied at my year one in my hostel by my roommates, they punished me, asked me to go on my knees...I couldn’t fight back, that day I hated the life I had and wished I was dead...it went on like that, until recently I choose to speak up, fight for myself and become a woman of Excellence! Never to be what I used to be anymore! No more low self esteem! No more inferior complex! No more bullying!
We are here in this world not just to make a living, but to live our making!
I choose to use my story to encourage other women, letting them know you can rise above all odds and excel without feeling the rejection that you once felt!
