What is Acceptance? From the dictionary it’s “ The act or
process of accepting”. Makes sense. I had been raised without a
father. He’s not dead, but he seems to be in a difficult place
where he can no longer be with us. It’s sad. Very sad. People
may think why I still think of my father, why don’t I hate him
for leaving us, why do I care, why? Mainly because he’s my
father. A female child needs her father’s comfort in difficult
times, as per a male child needs his mother. It’s so hard to
contain all the burden of not having someone to run to in times
like these. One thing that I am proud of is that I never gave up
on myself. I know it’s easy to say all this because I’m still
young and all but one thing is certain, The world has placed me
in a situation only I could handle and I know I can. I’ve dealt
with different people, situations, emotions, all that the world
could feed me at a very young age. As many people see me as a
normal girl, I’m not. Deep down I’m broken and I’m searching for
a way to fix myself.
