a 1000000 people makes me feel. it's hard for a good person. but there it is and it is but you young people i hope and if you do you will be strong and really stand up for the right things. for the right things because all the bottom line the main thing is not to close your eyes when something does go wrong not that i want to. spend it my mom was pregnant with me and wonders. and i don't know my route did. you say.

till august 1 was seeing myself my most walking to the guest. was really i would say. it was a. hand turn left turn right when you're ready to. special into camps when it needs. election. if. the ones where they will still make me smile. we were all day off walking. and no one knows what is supposed to be against.
9:53 am
my mouth to the left and self to. much as nearly a morning when i hear the siren or something most of us. like something was pushing for me. so why. is it still. trying to find a little in it with a little tiny piece of. it i look out except in the time that call home and women is called the motive. doing it in

after the day that we all met sonia. i thought about it almost every day. she has impacted me in ways i could have never imagined but like what she was telling us about her mom that's what got to me the most because my mom. is everything to me and if i watched her walk away from me knowing what was going to happen. i just i can't even imagine being strong enough to go on from that point. teenagers are really hard to reach now they're just structed with their phones with the internet the social networks and i think that sonya changed that for me at least oh. she had such a personal message that it was hard not to put yourself in her place and think
9:57 am
about what it would be like to be her and i think that that got all of our attentions she made me want to change things the way things are she made me want to make an impact on the world and i think that's why it's so important that she keeps talking to people and keeps changing people's lives like she did mine. join me every thursday on the island so i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to the world of politics or i'm sure i'll see if. you are no offense but you no longer a young woman in fact you are one of the last living survivors of the nazi yeah. i'm aware of it. all your life. you can
