Sometimes we don’t feel happy; life just keeps bringing us down and we can’t seem to get up. We find it hard to keep moving forward and reach our goals. We find it difficult to be who we want to be, scared of embracing our true selves.
However, Jasmine Vine managed to get out of this slope and find her true self.
