I enjoyed reading the story about the former refugee who hands out breads to other refugees in Australia, purely for the reason of being nice as he knew the feeling once.

My favorite post is the one about a woman in New Delhi. She doesn't have any dream because of her poverty but she is enjoying her job with other girls.

I found the story about the refugee girl who's family was chased to the woods in Syria very touching because it really makes me more aware of the conditions people live in around the world and the impact of war.

My favorite one was Levos , Greece. I felt sorry for the brother after this incident. It's a good thing that he survived although he can't do things he used to with his other brother. I hope that he will somehow regain his physical movement.

I like the man's, feeding animals, story because i have some common with him. We don't need a reason to help someone. I now realized that animals need as much helps as human.

I saw a story about the people who wear red T-shirts. Their wish was only stand up because they can't use their legs. I hope they can use their legs as normal people.

I enjoyed the story about the man from Pakistan because he found happiness and was able to express how greatful he was simply through dancing to the songs played on the radio.

My favorite post is about the children who are sitting in wheelchairs. The post is about their wishes and they say that their wishes are just to stand up. It is very impressive to me.

I like the man who lives in Congo. His friend really wished his happiness when he was in hard times, even though he lived off his friend, and it is caused his idea of 'family' to widen. His episode made me rethink about my friends and other important people.

I read the story of a woman who works in Turkey to earn money to leave there. She got caught by smuggler with her husband but she never could see him again after she was rescued. The story thought me there are many refugees needing help and led me think what I should doing.

I was inspired by the woman who mentioned that she wash utensils in a kitchen. She claims herself as a poor, unskilled person who has no dreams, but she enjoys her current life and that makes her even more happy than ever.

I really enjoyed the story of a young girl who didn't had a chance to understand happiness and taste the colors of childhood. This particular biography was very touching since it allows us to value and appreciate what we are currently having.

I enjoyed a story about a girl who has purple hair. The story was about appearance. After I read the story, I realized again that appearance is not all for people and should understand each person's individuality.

I really enjoyed the story of a girl who has a purple hair. All people have different personality so her appearance don't need to be same with other people. She doesn't need to cary someone's mind.

My favorite post is the one about she and her husband going to Turkey for one day. She had to sell everything and when she got there, she and her husband had to work 15 hours a day to have enough money to leave and so she and her husband went on a smuggling boat and it was filled with people and there was an accident and there was some survivors but she was one of them, the security coast guards came and moved her to the boat and they couldn't find her husband so she was all alone and she felt that he was next to her and she felt that he was calling her and when she looked back, she could see him.

I read a brief post about how a woman's family did not appreciate her appearance. I think that's really sad how they know who she is/her personality, yet struggle to look past her appearance and just be more accepting of her. It has taught me to not be so judgmental upon a first impression and that people's appearance should not alter how we view them as a person.

I enjoyed the story about the man who live in Greece.the story about the person who is a patriot, but when his country told him do bad things like kill people in a village. he felt guilty and a few nights
later he had fled despite knowing he could be killed and I realized that the country where you are living can told you do somethings wrong and terrible but we can together against the decision

I felt most empathy to the quote about the man who joined the Syrian army as he shows me just how fast things can go wrong in such wonderful conditions, and that we must always doubt others to a certain degree.

Yesterday i read a 2 sentences post about a girl ran away marry someone she met on Instagram and ran back home after 2 weeks. I think this opens me to another perspective of social media how people should be cautious using it.

I am inspired and i feel like that if i will be a father, i will do the exact same thing because i would want to know how my son is doing and how good he is and sometimes it might get kind of emotional because of how good he is.

My favorite post was about a girl who has purple hair, i realize that whenever people says anything about you and its's not good then don't listen to them. Be confident in yourself and always try harder than anyone to be better.
