We all have one thing in common. We are Human and a very social group. With being human comes making mistakes and learning about each other.

Biographie de l'auteur

I was adopted at a young age from South Korea by an American Catholic family who wanted to give a chance to a child for another life. My adopted parents had four kids of their own and one other adopted American child. The intentions are good, but the social aspect at the time was not the best in the US. Asians were not viewed very highly in the sixties and early seventies. I had to deal with a lot of abuse from kids around my age and older. I can still see the stairs from people from time to time to this day when I am out with my American girlfriend. I have grown up in the Midwest and still live in the Midwest, just four hours south of where I was raised outside of Saint Louis. The area reminds me a lot of my childhood. I am proud to call myself an American! I stand behind the oath I took to become a part of this country and represent it the best I can always!
