Description
This is a personal essay I wrote for one of my classes. The only requirement was for
us to write. I feel that I tend to write the best, when the topic is close to my heart. For
so many years, and even now, I am ashamed and confused about how to talk about
my past. I was raised in a way that was so different from the average person, and it is
difficult to relate to people given they truly do not understand my past. However, through
my writing, it is apparent, I also do not understand exactly what all happened to me. I
was soyoung at the time and I felt lost for a long while. Through my paper, I can to the
realization that I am enough and even if I could, I would not change what has
happened within my life.
