I.N.S.P.I.R.A.T.I.O.N

Have you ever look up to a person and wonder how can such person actually exist? Oprah Winfrey is one of my favourite person who I look up to. She was born to a single teenage mother and lived with her grandmother at such poverty that she had to wear potato sacks and clothes. When she was 6 her grandmother became ill so she had to move in with her grandmother. At the age of 9, she was raped by her 19 year old cousin. At the age of 14 she moved to nashvile, tendacy to love with her father. This was her turning point. She had an interest in media and and persued her career in television when she was 19. She was the first black female news anchor before the age of 20. Despite that, she was sexually harassed at work and a few months later she was fired because the producer said she was unfit for television news. She started hosting the morning talk show, AM Chicago, and turned it into the highest rating talk show in Chicago. It was then renamed into The Oprah Winfrey Show. He career grew and she's now one of the richest people in America. Inspiring millions of people and constantly helping the community.

Despite of being a women, she got through her hard times and did not let those to be a reason to fail in life. She's a bold women. She's my mother, Rajeswari Vellu Pillai. I've never experience her hardships but she surely never fail to give her best so that we don't have to go through it. We may argue a lot and throw words but at the end if the day she's the one I run to when I have something to talk about. Even though she has a rough day or life, she doesn't fail to feed me, check up on me and provide my needs. I always say that she has no idea what I go through when I'm in pain and always accepted it but to speak truly, I am the one who has no idea how much she has to let go to see her family, us, happy. She has given up so much that no words can say how eternally grateful I am to her.





What both my mom and Oprah Winfrey have in common is that they go by one rule,
'Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe!'
These two women are the most inspiring people in my life.
 An idol online and An idol by my side.
