Remembering Justice Ginsburg
One of the women who has profoundly influenced me is Justice Ginsburg. In today's China, I cannot imagine needing someone else's permission for an abortion—shouldn't that be a personal matter? However, in the United States, this was once considered illegal, which surprised me greatly. Yet, it was the relentless efforts of Justice Ginsburg in the case of Roe v.

Her experiences and attitude towards life have had a positive impact on me.
