I am from Haiti this is the story of my life and how people think I am so “Rich and everything that I have are “handed” to me. When I was in Haiti I was living in the smallest house you could possibly imagine. Life was hard I had to work for everything and I mean work hard some days are better than others. Sometime it could be a great day where my mom come home and she is able to cook us something to eat, but some days when she come home from being gone all day she come home with nothing. Therefore we did not have anything to eat that day so we could go a day or two without food that did not stop us from thanking God for another day above ground.

Years goes by I was still living there, I didn’t know if anyone wanted to take me in. My younger sister and brother got adopted together I was the only one in my family left behind then two years later I had a little cousin who came to the Orphanage a couple months passed she got a family and again I was back to being the only one. Four months before 2010 ended there was a big Earthquake in Haitian. I remembered being outside playing basketball with some of the kids that lived in the Orphanage with right when I made the shot the grounded started to shake, I did not know my whole world would be turned upside down I was at the age 12 and I did not know what was going all I can here and see is people screaming and yelling for help. You can see smoke in the air, you can hear building crashing down, and people are crying yelling God’s name!! Looking back now the clouds in the air that I was seeing is almost like when the atomic bomb was drop on Hiroshima. I still didn’t understand it all mean while in the Orphanage I was one of the oldest I had to help out the little ones and make sure they are safe. Sometimes I could hear the Nannies talking and crying we had to stay away from walls so if the earthquake happens again then the walls wont fall under
