Josee's story has put the reality of life out there. "You wake up
in the morning with a normal life, and in the afternoon, gunshots
make you leave everything you had behind," said Josee. Her story
tells how you can still fight for your rights even at a younger
age. When she was a teenager, she was trapped in the war zones in
three different East African countries (Burundi civil war, 1993,
Rwandan Genocide, 1994 and Congo DRC civil war, 1996). "I was born
refugee and always found myself in the same position in every
country that I have lived in, until the age of 29," she said. She
was used to running away because of war and became so traumatised
to believe that she could settle or feel comfortable living in a
new country without being worried that at any time things might
turn around the wrong way. She always thought that war might break
out and make her leave again. In her story of being a Survivor
Champion, she also opens up about her experiences of domestic
violence, living an emotionally abusive life and many more
tragedies that will be found in the pages of this book. Josee's
story shows that you can always be adventurous and try to move to
other places for a better life. She says, "The best decision I have
ever made in life was moving to other places (countries, cities)
for a better life. You don't have to settle for a painful life."
