However, I only discovered my true passion for athletics with the help of a friend. Although my love for sport was evident from childhood, it was only when my friend supported and equipped me with everything I need to pursue this as my ambition that my passion for athletics came to life. It was unique, the first time in my life I caught that iron ball. It left me inspired with a massive sense of encouragement that made me feel I would one day become a successful person. I love the sport and challenging my impairment. It benefits me psychologically and physically." (facesoman.com, 27 Jun 2021; Athlete, 03 Sep 2016)
