I have watched lives change. I have seen women gain confidence.
I think it's the human spirit inside of all of us that has an enormous capacity to survive.
After being in captivity for so long, I can't begin to describe how wonderful it feels to be home in Canada.
Women in Somalia face almost unimaginable oppression.
I am so proud to be a Canadian.
I don't think I'm unusual in that, in my 20s, like many people, I felt invincible.
