Never giving up in tough situations can really bring you far. If you persevere. If you think it through. If you know what might happen if you don’t continue on with what you are doing. As a matter of fact‚ I was put in a few situations where I was about to give up‚ but I didn’t because I thought it through and figured out what I could accomplish if I continued. For example‚ when I was hunting. One time was when I was just about ready to give up while practicing with the bow outside on the deck

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. It is tiring because I often hear people talking about how they went to a Mexican restaurant and had amazing food or how they love tacos but the tacos they associate as tacos have hard shells

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. My little town where I’d grown up‚ made friends‚ and built memories was‚ to say the least‚ completely un-diverse

It was the rum that burned his throat a little bit‚ but that burn meant he was still alive‚ didn’t it? Somewhere in between the sips of fire‚ he passed out‚ and eventually he passed away. I would like to tell you I am angry with him‚ but I will not be angry anymore. I sobbed this over his still warm body one hundred times until my throat burned a little‚ too. My dad was a drug addict.

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. After the show was over‚ the only way to kill time was to play outside and wander down to the creek that ran parallel to our property. There was a secret trail buried in the wall of trees that lined our two acre yard
