For me, it's my mom. She wasn't the perfect mom but she did what she could to raise my brother and I and I'm grateful for that. And I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for her.

The fact I live in a safe, progressive country. I am thankful I have never had to worry about day-to-day assault, gun violence, poverty, police brutality, lack of healthcare and education. I’m grateful my parents migrated here before my birth, otherwise I think my life would have looked very differently. Things aren’t perfect, of course, but compared to many developing countries I just feel incredibly glad to live here.
