My heart,my mind,my soul... simultaneously quench for freedom. Sure, I'm living in an independent country but the real independence begins at home. if the people there choose to shut you,there you go-

I want freedom to be myself. To wear,think and act as me. I don't want to live a life to satisfy or keep up someone's pride.

You know what's more painful? It's when you know that it's because you are a girl,as if it was you who decided it. When you get to take the blame and punishment for something out of your knowledge, it's indeed painful.
