History says she was born Oct 29, 1938.
I wasn't there to see her grow up
I learned that her early marriage didn't stop her from going to school
I wasn't there to see her first political struggle, but I lived to see her defy the odds
I lived to see her inspired her fellow women to do more including this great woman ( Hillary R. Clinton of the United States of America )
When Liberia was a no go zone to the rest of the world, I lived to see her put my country back on the world map
I lived to see her tolerance
I lived to hear her answer her critics (cheeking them up the real Liberian way)
I lived to see that Gola Kru girl cajole men
I lived to see Ellen Johnson Sirleaf as Africa's first democratically elected female President
I lived to see her story- pardon me, I meant history.
