Something a little different

Hi,

Today I am going to be talking about something a little different,  I have just read  an article on hellogiggles.com.  It is about a 14 year old Blogger from Pakistan called Malala Yousafzai (Pictured below).



She was shot in the head and neck, for basically, standing up for what she believed in, and the Taliban, shot her for for writing a blog about her life and women's rights in Pakistan.
Here is the link to the article

Here is some of her writing

Stories like this - however horrible, and disgusting it is to take the life of such a young girl-show that we should be inspired by Malala, and the courage she showed to stand up for what she believed in
and we should do the same- doesn't need to be in blog form, just in everyday life!
