PIECES IBD

Sinopse

THE BEGINNING There was a cool crispness in the air that indicated winter was coming very soon.áIt was too soon for Keirra because Christmas would be here shortly.áKeirra remembered when the Christmas season was a joyful and exciting time.áShe looked forward to unwrapping all those gifts and anticipated she would soon be seeing all the favorite toys she had dreamed about. Christmas for Kierra was always so wonderful.áShe seemed to exist in a different world back then.áThe kind of world little girls dream of: the white house with the red painted door sitting in the middle of an enormous yard with plush green grass and flowers, surrounded by a white picket fence, a little dog named 'Spot' lounging in his doghouse, and the family gathered together as they did year after year for the annual 'Soul Food Feast'.áEveryone always seemed so happy and hugs and kisses and smiles were given and welcomed.áThis was the dream world she lived in as a child.áThings seemed to change quickly as she grew older.áThe dream world she had as a child began to fade.áTime no longer seemed to stand still.áKeirra was growing up.KeirraâÇÖs parents divorced when she was young and she began to struggle with who she should be loyal to, her mother or her father.áShe did not want to take sides because she loved them both.áDivorce is always difficult for children and in KeirraâÇÖs case, it was extremely difficult.áShe seemed to have no sense of belonging or purpose and she began to look desperately for something or someone to give her life meaning.
