CE:Broken but still strong

This is a contest entry for I really love,love,love to draw her! Of course this artwork means something, the chains are to represent the past she had which I assume are bad,it may be the past but definitely not forgotten, so it is like a prison, however she still has a good heart   the bright glow is like the future which gets better after some time and that the top half of the artwork is dark(representing her past, the below half,the glowing half is her future which like I said is brighter and happier) she has cuts because she is slowly letting go of the past and is difting away into a brighter future.The outfit represent her personality,intelligent and like maybe adventurous or futurisic? Anyway, wish me luck on winning and hopefully you like it.
