Six years ago, Elizabeth Smart captured national attention after she was allegedly abducted and held captive for nine months.

In a rare interview, with People magazine, she showed a remarkable attitude toward her ordeal. Smart told the publication, "I'm not sorry this happend to me anymore, because it made me grow up."

Now a 20-year-old junior at Brigham Young University majoring in music performance, Smart speaks of her good fortune and luck to be where she is today.

"I feel so fortunate that I was able to come through this unscarred. I want to tell other people, 'Don't give up. Miracles do happen,' " she said.
