"Is life a thorn or a flower?"

"Ms Ghimire has published four volumes of poetry, two books of short stories and many newspaper columns."   

Thomas Bell, BBC journalist, writes that "a young woman with cerebral palsy, whose only way of communicating is by writing with her foot, has won Nepal's most prestigious literary prize."  Jhamak Kumari Ghimire has spent a lifetime fighting for her right to life and education as a result of being born with a disability in a poor village.  Read the article "Nepal's prize winning poet with cerebral palsy" to be inspired by Ms. Ghimire's journey of determination to achieve her dreams.
