Facebook is amazing, isn't it? Anything can be found on Facebook. What is even more amazing, is this link above. It is a video I found on facebook non the less. The video is about a girl called Lizzie Velasquez who's not that many years older than myself actually. She was born with the rarest disease in the world, not being able to gain weight. The post weight she had ever gained was 64 pounds which is about 29 kilos. In the video she holds an inspiring speech about her life, about how she got from rock bottom to the top and managed to hold a speech infront of lots of people, telling her story. I'm blown away by this girl. Click on the link, and watch the video. Amazing.
In her speech, she explains that an 8 second video of her was posted on the internet titled as the worlds ugliest woman. 400 million veiws and thousands of comments from strangers telling her to go kill herself. What the actual f"#¤%&/()= is wrong with people? Please watch the video, please share it, and please learn from her story.
