When I was 8, I was bullied because of my ugly look.
I was a Christian.
I prayed everyday. At that time, somehow, I was feeling some existences that were protecting me... I felt it very vividly. Since I had no friends at all, I was always talking to that "someone".
And I remember that "someone" told me, "Don't believe what they say. They have no idea what they are doing. You are a princess of the purple hair. You will be the bride of the King." At that time, I said to that someone, "My hair is black not purple..."
One time, I was beaten again, and felt that someone was gone. I was so sad and cried "Please come back! Why have you forsaken me?" I think I cried for 2 or 3 hours.
My mother put me in an English language school. At that time, it still was a rare thing. But I hated it. It was twice a week routine. For me, it was another addition of misery because I thought I was stupid. Again, I had no self confidence.
And I was kind of right. I was not good at English, at all.
After that several hours of crying, I felt very light. I turned on the TV and watched a program. And in that program, there was a scenery that showed an English letter as "BABY"... and I pronounced that vocally right there.
I could read "BABY" and I felt, "I can speak English"
Since that day, I speak fluent English.
