Laurina's Quest for Her Roots

This story is about LAURINA (a young girl) wondering what was the other half of her family heritage/genealogy). Where did her ideas and thoughts come from. Her inner self kept saying she was much more. At the age of 7, she grew up with a mother, stepfather and siblings of her mother and stepfather. She always felt like an outsider in the family she lived with. She was pretty much treated like a second class member of the family. She knew in her inner self she was capable of much more and felt that her other side came from a great family. Laurina was the oldest in the family and got stuck with baby sitting and cleaning. As she grew older, her inner sense knew there was more to her life and self worth.
