Greta Thunberg, Women's History Month - She's making history - 29

 "I have Asperger's and that means I'm different from the norm."

At school I was always alone, without friends, I sat in a corner.

Still at home sick eating disorder

It's all gone now, because I figured out where my path is.

I’m not the angry little girl who screams in front of world leaders, I’m not how some media portray me to be, I’m a shy, studious girl, a nerd who cares about the present and future of the Planet and therefore my own.

I have found purpose in a world that often seems empty and meaningless to so many people. When haters get offended by your looks and difference, it means they don't know where to go. And you know you're winning.”
