"I don't want to be remembered as the girl who was shot. I want to be remembered as the girl who stood up."
A patron of courage, freedom, and education, a symbol of greatness; there is a lot more to describe the 18 year old girl from Swat, Pakistan- Malala Yousafzai.
She was one of the many girls who was denied the right to education in Pakistan by the terrorist organization , but what made her different was her courage. Her courage to stand up and say,"No, I want the right I was born with." She was threatened to death by the terrorists but Malala did not back down. Fearing her courage, the terrorists shot her in the head in front of her innocent friends. But she survived to tell the world the cruelties of Taliban- the terrorist organization. She lived on to further empower the right to education for children and safety for women.
Just at 18 years of age Malala has earned great recognition for her priceless efforts. She became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate in the year of 2014. Her dreams and her words are carried in hearts of millions of people like me. Her simplicity and confidence are the values that makes her my inspiration. Her courageous life proves how easy and tenseness life we lead.
There are some people who always stay in the hearts of people thus never die, Malala Yousafzai is undoubtedly one of such person.
