"When life gives you lemon, make lemonade." Whenever a door closes, a better one seems to open. My life is a story of big dreams, dreams that come true; of great hopes and deceptions, fears, exile, and broken promises. The story of choices and consequences. Most of all; it is a story of an unconditional love, a continual struggle and a battle to protect lives. The earthquake that hit me was so devastating that everyone, even myself, was convinced that it would kill me. Yet, here I am. I held on to all the love that I have and all the promises I made; I survived. With the beginning of my new journey of saving animal lives, I encountered a friend that ended up being a disaster on my dreams, my dreams that are yet to start.
