 I could be everything and anything regardless of my height. I had developed  my own platform naturally: my voice and confidence. What mattered was not how short or tall I was, or my race, religion or  sex.

What mattered was not others chose to identify me but how I chose to present and identify myself.Being short despite its many disadvantages helped me discover myself. I could be an astronaut.I could be a doctor.I could be a humanitarian.I could do whatever I put my mind to because my height didn’t have to determine the heights that I wanted to reach.
