The world needs you to change it. So please ask yourself “what would I do if I were not afraid?” Then go do it. (Sheryl Sandberg)

It takes more than a courage to even change your own world when you are facing one of the scariest nightmares ever called cancer. A year ago, I was diagnosed having fibroadenoma mammae, a benign type of breast cancer. I’m so gratitude to finally win the battle. But at the same time, my heart crushed to know that there are more than 8,2 million people out there who are forced to stop while fighting for their  life.

“I cannot change the world alone, but I can cast a across the waters to create many ripples” – Mother Teresa

Life is an excellent game. Change is inevitable, but progression is always a choice. Today, we may stand on certain points but we never know what will happen tomorrow. We can be in the same place or we can choose to try something new and stay away from our comfort zone.

Words by Aini Hanifa

In life, we must be facing good and bad moments that inspires and teaches us something or even changing our minds. Those experience are the moment that shape us today.
