Insecurities of a Half Blood
Insecurity. A word that describes a feeling that we as humans feel at one point in our lives. My insecurity most of my life was my heritage. I am half Tongan and half Filipino. Many don’t know where Tonga is, and my whole life I've told people that it's just like Hawaiian and settled for that. Growing up in Georgia and Wisconsin where there was no one like me it was so depressing to me. The kids I went to school with didn't know where Tonga was, or they thought that Hawaii was a country. They also didn’t know what or where the Philippines were. I had to explain that we were like the Japanese, another Asian island.
