Childhood should be carefree, playing in the sun; not living a nightmare in the
darkness of the soul.
Inside, my soul became so cold I hated everything. I even despised the sun, for I knew I would never be able to play in its warm presence. I cringed with hate whenever I heard other children laughing, as they played outside. My stomach coiled whenever I smelled food that was about to be served to somebody else, knowing it wasn't for me.
One could come from less than humble beginnings, to become a winner from within.
It is important for people to know that no matter what lies in their past, they can overcome the dark side and press on to a brighter world.
Even in its darkest passages, the heart is unconquerable. It is important that the body survives, but it is more meaningful that the human spirit prevails.
I told myself no matter what she did I would not let the bitch take me down.
