I was born in Russia and have lived there till about 10 years old. I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. My mother was alcoholic. My father was not around. A Canadian family adopted my sister and me and promised us a good life. The life did not go as was promised. I just want to say that even through the hard times in life, there will always be a silver lining. Writing is what I love doing, but I sometimes need the inspiration. Keep smiling even if that’s all you have to offer!!!!
