Girl in the Wind
By
Bobbi Carducci
Prologue
Her story begins not with her first breath, nor will it end with her last.
Just as the blood of her ancestors flows through her veins and their strengths and weaknesses had much to say about how she looks and where her structural weaknesses lie, her story has etched itself onto her children and grandchildren. Some will benefit from the trials of the past. Others will have to fight through their history to build a better life.
When asked why she decided to tell her story, she replied, “Because I must. The voices of my lifetime speak to me in my dreams and wake with me each morning. I would be as lost without them now as I was when the events I occurred. Perhaps some will find strength in my weakness, joy in the aftermath of my tears, and love where I meant it to flow, even when it seemed I didn’t care. If not, I will move on with no regrets for every misstep I have taken has created a story that was, if not well lived, I dare hope you’ll agree, was well told. “
