Education Was Her Savior
For many people, education can act as a very important part of a person’s life. Education has the potential to make someone understand their full potential whilst also challenging themselves at the same time. Even though it took her 9 years to complete, Elin returned to school and got her Bachelor’s degree in her second language. She was even asked to do the commencement speech at her own graduation…
In her speech, Elin said, “I’ve been referred to as ‘a woman without words’ in the media and criticized for not speaking up”… At that moment she made her voice clear. After everything, Elin said that her education saved her, even in the hardest of times. Only she could define her future, and she was going to do it with the full confidence and knowledge that she could do it.
