THE PLACE I BELONG
BY TERENCE DERVISHI
My name is Terence Dervishi and I am getting a lot off my chest. I think about things a lot, and know I have some talent as a writer. Really I don’t know myself well though. I am really trying to find my place in this world. I look backward and find no help: the Terence who could not talk is past. I look forward and see a blank slate, since I have no way of writing my own future. I hope this record of my thoughts and feelings will help me and others grasp where we nonspeakers fit in.
