Can you imagine how difficult her life was while she was stepping on the way to success
Every time she felt afraid to sing in front of classmates,
but she told herself to be brave! She fought on!
Every time she wanted to play with others in her spare time,
but she realized that she had to practice singing. She fought on!
Every time she planned to sleep until late on cold mornings.
but she encourged herself not to waste time. She fought on!
Every time she wanted to give up,but she fought on !
Every time she ... , but she fought on !
Don't decide to make a change until the last minute!
Your life does not get better by chance,it gets better by change.
