Stand Up

By October 11, 2013Your Stories

Today I would like to share my story with you. My story is like this: My family moved here 10 years a go with me, my sister, and my parents. Later on I got a little sister in Canada which made my story worse. Ever since I received education here I have been dealing with problems around my home. My parents and my older sister don’t speak fluent English and they still don’t now. Whenever some kind of business calls or anything related with English I had to deal with it, but every time I made a mistake my parents would call me useless and worthless and such. I had all these piled up within me. All these feeling I have never told anyone; none of my friends, no adult I could rely on, nor did I ever tell my best friends I hang around with. With years passing by I would be called more horrible things by my parents and even some of the family friends say that I’m useless too. So I just fake a smile and try to ignore but I always had these feelings piled inside me. But ever since Access52 came I felt really inspired. Even if I do keep these feeling piled up, I feel that I can look forward without regret and worries and try my best to keep a smile on my face. I’m really glad I got this far to get support from my friends, guest speakers, and teachers. I look forward to another day where I can cherish with my friends. I will continue to stand up because you have inspired me to never give up hope. I thank you!
