I remember…

reflection of a slice of my life…

I remember… I remember a time that felt simpler but it wasn’t really, come to find out, childhood and being an adult is more similar than many think, emotions never change and they stem with truths of how we feel. As a child It’s hard to express what we feel many a times, often as we become adults things can be easyier to identify. But not all have the same passion or drive to express themselves. Communication is important for me… it helps me clarify how I feel and want to feel. Ironically I do this in English these days, for it’s not my native tongue. I was born speaking Spanish, and stoped around age four, no one else in Boston where I lived spoke Spanish. Ironically I have never inbraced my heratige much, being adopted changed how I felt like I didn’t belong in any piticular world. I didn’t feel I was missing anything, for how does one miss what they don’t know or understand mostly? That was until I was a adult in California and people would be presumious and think I was fluent in Spanish. I was annoyed at first then frustrated at this, yet it didn’t change the fact I had little desire to communicate in Spanish. I’ve always felt and been different than most, this is one thing constant in my life. Today, I know some Spanish but not fluently as well as French and a some phrases in a few other languages. I even wrote a book in English, now available on Amazon. The main character is a reflection of part of who I am, in The Starkey Aireo ans Sebastian.
