What a truly worthy winner Malala Yousafzai is. Truly inspirational and only 17. Loved the fact she was told during her chemistry lesson at school and then waited until the end of the school day to speak to the press.
He did not say you will not be storm tossed, you will not be sore distressed, you will not be work weary. He said you will not be overcome.

    She's a good and brave girl isn't she?

    Hard to believe that in the 21st century we are still fighting for the right of education for girls!

    I was so pleased she won it :)

    Love

    A very worthy winner and a terrific example of determination, courage and humility. Isn't it heartening when good things happen to good people?

    I was delighted she was awarded the peace prize - I never fail to be moved whenever she speaks. So much bravery and such a wise head on one so young - truly an inspiration.
