Malala Yousafzai's Moving #10YearChallenge Pic - Last Day At Swat Valley To First Day In Oxford

From moving to a funny post, the #10yearchallenge has given the netizens incredible stories of transformation and growth.

Among the moving ones is that of Nobel Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who posted a picture of her last day at the Swat Valley and that of her first day at Oxford University.

Now that's a smashing ten-year transformation.

In the post, she recalled the days when the word peace was non-existent under the Taliban. Day in and day out, Malala was living under, ¡°terrorism and violence¡±.

¡°As an 11 year old, I worried about my future and my freedom. All I wanted was to put on my ink-stained scarf, walk through the streets, sit on our old wooden chairs inside those cracked walls, pick my pen, open my book,¡± Malala wrote in assembly.malala.org

¡°Reading these entries now, 10 years later, I hear so much in that young girl¡¯s voice ¡ª scepticism, nostalgia, hope and caution. The same feelings that I hear in the voices of the girls that I meet around the world, in schools, on city streets, in refugee camps,¡± she adds.

When I saw the #10YearChallenge, I started thinking about my life when I was 11 years old and how different it was then. #EducationDay https://t.co/IX7xBKxu6g

"It boils down to this: When most leaders think of all the problems in the world, 130 million out-of-school girls are not at the top of the list. They are concerned about economies, shifting centers of power, conflict and geopolitical mechanics. Never mind that educated girls could solve a lot of these problems. They have the short-term focus of today, not tomorrow."

Here's how people reacted:
