Khaoula Majjati, 18, Azilal. My Savior I know a lot of people who can be good models like our parents, teachers or famous people .But my aunt is the person who has the biggest impact on my life. The person who taught me the meaning of love, support and friendship better than anyone else has ever done, even my parents. My aunt is called Saâdiya. She is 59 years old and she lives in Rabat with her small family. She does not have any daughters at all. All her children are boys. That is why she considers me as her loveable daughter. My aunt is the person I call when I feel sad and when I need guidance. She gives me a positive energy to focus on my goals and to study hard. Although she is not educated, she always encourages me to become successful at my studies, and she inspires me to be the very best in all that I do. My beloved aunt went through difficult circumstances. Her husband left her when she was pregnant and he immigrated to Algeria in order to find a temporary job. She was left alone with her three children without any provider. Despite all the sufferance this had caused her, she stayed very strong and went out to work. She has the unique abilities to face difficulties. Her optimism in life and her continuous care for other people is something that motivates me to emulate her in my everyday life. Her continual advice makes me feel that I am always supported. I still remember how she supported me when I was in the darkest moments of my depression. She was a key element in my steady recovery. She tried, with different ways, to help me to find solutions and new perspectives. I remember a few years ago when she told me:  Be a good person first, everything else comes second. She is the most sincere, generous and caring person I know. Another invaluable trait that my aunt possesses is trustworthiness. I trust her enough to talk to her and I know she will keep my secrets. Her heart is the solid safe where I all my personal things.
