On June 10, 2016, the world lost a beautiful soul. It lost a beautiful voice, heart, talent, and inspiration. We lost a beautiful, young girl who took the world by storm. Christian was shot and killed after her Orlando concert at the young age of 22-years-old. She had her whole entire life to live. I looked up to her for so long and her death was a tragedy that had the entire world crying. Even though she is gone, she will never be forgotten.

Christina was a woman of many talents. Out of all of these talents, she was known best for her voice. Her voice was pure gold in every essence. She put so much emotion into every single performance she gave and she put her entire heart into her career. Christina is best known for her YouTube channel, where she has over 3,000,000 subscribers, and from "The Voice," where she placed third in the finals.

Christina was a flawless performer. She engaged the audience from the very beginning and left them at the end wanting more. If anyone has ever watched her perform, then you know exactly what I mean. Her vocal range was also so incredibly large and listening to her sing was an honor. Christina was just a woman of so much class. She was such a well-respected artist and always will be. Not only was she a phenomenal singer, but she was not afraid to speak out for what she believed in. This is one of the many lessons she taught her public.

Christina taught us that hard work does pay off in the end. If you want something, then you have to put 100 percent effort into that something in order to succeed. She taught us to never give up and to always dream. Christina taught us that no matter what age you are, you can make a difference in this world. All you have to do is be determined and find your voice.

Christina was an individual that touched the hearts of so many people around her. She was a beautiful person inside and out, and the world has lost one amazingly talented individual. She was such a sweet and humble individual who loved her life. The world will never forget the impact that this young lady had. Christina Grimmie, you may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.
