›My Ancestors’ Past Made Who I am
Jan 21 2006
A caring daughter, and a loving sister is what makes me who I am.
I come from Vietnam where my ancestors had escaped to the sea.
Visiting my grandmother’s grave, is what my family does.
This helps me connect with my grandmother, as best as I possibly can.
A playful friend, and a working student is what makes me who I am.
I hope to know the actual meaning of hapiness and the mourning of life someday.
I hear my mother’s voice, as I think of my childhood past.
As I dream of my parents’ difficulties, I picture them trying to escape.
I wish to experience my father’s heartache, of losing his many brothers & sisters.
Prentending to be my parents, helps me to cope with their sorrow and pain.
I believe in helping the less fortunate, including the many homeless.
Touching the hearts of all people, really makes me happy.
Feeling happy with myself helps me get through hard times.
I worry about being someone that I’m not.
I cry about finding out of my dog’s death.
A good sport with losing, and a good sport with winning is what makes me who I am.
To value my very fortunate life, and all I’ve gotten from it makes me proud.
I dream for all people to work together when needed.
I hope for all and everyone’s dreams come true someday.
