Personal Reflection

I had the open woods to play in and the orange grove to pretend anything my mind would wish to entertain. I truly had freedom to explore.

I mostly followed my big sisters around until they started dating and had a life that didn’t include me.

Then I followed my brother (just 18 months older) and his friends around, but that always ended badly, they were pretty mean.

I was mostly on my own after the age of eight.
