Synopsis: This story is about a child who was branded from birth by a father who failed to accept her as his own. His reasoning was that she did not look like the other children. She was very fair, and her resemblance was more like his wife's side of the family, which was unacceptable to him. As an infant, he was cared for by her grandmother and aunt until they were not able to do so. As she grew, she was considered incorrigible and accused of various things which she had not done. She was placed in foster care, where she faced many obstacles, even attempted rape. Because of one loving family, she found love and guidance which saved her life. She was taught that education will play a key role in your life if you adhere to it. She was taught how to protect herself, and to learn all that she can and never allow hate to control you or your thoughts.
After her foster care parents' untimely death, all that she was taught, she abided it by throughout her time in foster care and after she was on her own pursuing life. One important factor in her life was that her case worker believed in her and did not see in her the various things that she was accused of.
