I am from
I am from finally meeting my family after 15 years of question and impatiently waiting, to finding the real truth no matter what it takes.

I am from the family get togethers and bar-b-ques, the hours of everyone sitting on the back deck, from childhood stories to lessons learned. I am from arguing and wrestling on the back deck just to see who has to do the dishes.

I am from the apple tree and learning the hard way, to the days of camping that could possibly be the best days of your life. I am from the Clorox smelling camper way up in the mountains to "The Adventure" up the hill to find fire wood.

I am from arguing just to prove a point, to shut up and listen, from the hundreds of "near death experiences" with your friends but still going out and doing it again. I am from the Earth shattering screams and sprinting through a giant field to seriously it was just a leaf?
