    Growing up as a Latina and a girl I was constantly reminded of the differences between me and other people around me. Firstly‚ belonging to a minority group that is always seen as exotic or foreign‚ becomes tiring and overwhelming because you constantly feel like you don’t belong to the society you live in.

But I had never set foot inside of a religious building‚ couldn’t even speak the same language as my grandmothers‚ and ate congee with fermented soy beans like it was the most natural thing in the world.

    Growing up in rural Kansas was boring. Especially since I grew up in the seventies. There were no cell phones or game systems to occupy my time. My family had an old black and white television set. I loved to watch The Price is Right in the days before Bob Barker’s hair turned white.

There was a secret trail buried in the wall of trees that lined our two acre yard

    Growing up I was never raised with any particular religion. I had not even stepped foot in a Church or any building of worship except for a funeral in a Catholic Church when I was nine or ten.
