Greetings from the Young Republic ЛНР)))

Hello! 

This is my first article and in it I'd like to tell you about themselves and their past moments!!! 

My name is Marina, I'm from Lugansk, it is now a separate Republic of the ЛНР. I'm 18 years old, at 18 years old, I have seen a lot and survived, in the form of war and violent behavior. I have many stories that I want to share with you, but at the moment I want to share pleasant moments my in life and future goals!!! 

At the moment, I am a 3rd year College on interesting profession of an economist. In the beginning I certainly so did not thought,probably, as and half of adolescents, choosing a profession!! I convinced myself that it was not mine and when I go to the Institute will choose a very different direction associated with my sports. But in the second year everything changed, I realized that it was interesting and decided to continue to learn, but harder!!! I will raise their young Republic to a high level, well i at least try ;) 

As I wrote above, I wanted to choose a different profession related to my sports. With 12 years I started getting into basketball, I saw your meaning of life. I raced like crazy on its my workouts, tried, tried, and eventually,I started well prepared. I still remember my fear the first contest, as I was shaking hands and pounding heart. Huh I never thought that I would be afraid just to go on the field))) But once I got the ball in his hands, I looked at the coach, and he at me and I have immediately worked instincts. After the first roll,although I did not get, I realized that there is nothing wrong there and the coach won't eat me))) 

My training and competitions did not lasted very long, because in 2014, the war began and everything ended... During the war, my family was forced to leave Luhansk due to heavy fighting. During my stay in Russia, I wrote my coach on a social network, like him, what happened to him, whether he was hurt. After a couple of days I got a reply from he, or rather the question of how I treat to the war. I replied that it's scary, and I don't want to suffer the innocent people!!! After a couple of minutes, my attitude has changed dramatically for to man,  man I respected, he wrote that I have nothing to talk to you, because you chickened and ran, not even standing to defend their homeland and this forced loss of people. That was his answer, he didn't even ask why we left, what were our reasons, have not affected anyone in my family... 

After that I have not talked to him, seen a couple of times, but I didn't even to approach, now I think it may still worth to come, maybe he changed his mind!!! Now, I continue to learn, to play basketball, volleyball, met my soul mate and live happily ever after!!! After College, I'm going to go to Institut, to live together with your loved one to continue to exercise and hope to continue to write and make a contribution to Steemit!!! 

Never not easy way, each person through something passes, and someone gives up half way. So, I wish you never give up, to always have the strength to go forward and, of course, a peaceful sky over your head !!!

Your rainbow elephant!)
