Amandla is a Zulu word that means, strength, power, or intensity. 
My father gave me that name, he said it was because as his first child I gave him strength but also that if ever felt weak I would remember that all the strength in the world lies within me.
I would come to need that strength when I got kidnapped and trafficked but as I later came to find out my heart would need that strength the most. 

"Another day of living, another day of fighting."-Amandla

"I never knew love could bloom in so many places."-Sofia
