As a child, my life was far from safe and stable as I worked on footpaths and railway stations. Each day, I faced the constant dangers and risks that came with the bustling chaos of busy streets and crowded platforms. My small body navigated through the crowds, trying to make a living by selling trinkets or begging for a few coins. The traffic and fast-moving vehicles served

as a reminder of the ever-present danger. There were moments of despair and fear as I ventured into dimly lit corners, often encountering unscrupulous individuals who took advantage of my vulnerability. The harsh weather, insufficient food, and lack of shelter only added to the uncertainty of my life. My heart longed for safety and stability, a future free from these perils, where I could find comfort and break free from the grip of adversity. I am incredibly thankful to the children's home that rescued me, providing me with a chance to escape this precarious life and look forward to a brighter future.
