To begin the journey to find my idea of beauty, some…

As with most things, my…

but I hope Shivana gets the money and does get the abortion. If she gets the abortion she can continue on the path of education and follow her dreams. I think that she should tell her mom because I think that keeping secrets is definitely not a good idea because at times it could make things a lot worse.
