If you look around to find meaning in everything that happens, you will
end up disappointed. Sometimes there aren't reasons behind the
terrible things that go on. I ask myself, if I knew all the answers,
would it help? I lie awake and wonder why I don't have parents and
wonder what will become of my brother and me. But when the morning comes,
I realize that there's nothing to be done about what has already happened.
I can only get up and do my chores and push through the day and find the good in it.
