My journey with social work commenced aged 18 months when I was removed from my mother’s care. I don’t remember this time and only have the story that I was told – files were lost and memories gone. My story was black …… darkness. I knew I had to create my own story and social work has led me to help others understand their story.
I chose This Candle because …
… it is my wedding candle. A candle symbolizes light in life’s darkness …… illlumination. This candle, my candle, brought light to my life through the support of another, and, hopefully, through social work I can work with others to bring light to their darkness.
