    If this doesn't make you shed tears, you gotta be cold blooded. This man lost his MOM at age 11. From starvation...
    The strength of this man is...
    Astonishing.
    I just have no words.
    You're safe now. 😭😭 Bless your soul.

    👏❤ you are most welcome here dude, I only wish we could help more people escape that nightmare. So many of us take our freedom, and our safety for granted, I lived a very hard life, and made my own escape to freedom and safety when I was his age. I can say with the utmost confidence that I never take my freedom and what I have for granted. I often remind myself of people like him when things get hard, I think everyone here in America should do the same.
