Somebody's Daughter Word Cloud
I chose this word cloud to represent some of the emotions and feelings that are running through Sarah's mind in the novel I'm reading called "Somebody's Daughter." Although Sarah's foster parents are very supportive and accepting of Sarah, she feels like she can't live her life not knowing who her biological parents are. So she has no other choice but to go on a journey and find them in Korea. As Sarah is aware that she has a different heritage than the rest of her family, she accepts herself for who she is and she's proud to be Korean. When Sarah lands in Korea, she feels very overwhelmed and confused because of the fact that she has to read and understand everything in a whole different language that she doesn't know how to speak. Sarah has to go back to her foster home where they ask her to recall what she knows about who her mother is. Unfortunately, Sarah is unable to do this because she has a very foggy memory about what her life was like with her biological mother. Although it is a challenge for Sarah, she won't give up just yet. Inspired by other stories, Sarah goes on a game show and tells her very own story to the world in hopes of receiving a phone call. As a call comes in, Sarah feels at ease knowing that her biological family cared enough to call, but it isn't as it seems. The woman who called claiming that she was Sarah's mother was a false recognition when they met in person and Sarah then begins to feel hopeless and emotionally drained. At the end of her journey, Sarah is unaware of when she'll meet her biological family but until then she feels safe and wanted by her family back in the United States.
