Unwanted: From Rejection to Glory

Imagine an object. Any object... Good. Now hold it in your mind and imagine for a minute. If that thing is hard pressed, but not crushed or broken; If it is struck but not destroyed, then what will it become? Will it be weaker for that experience, or stronger? If it could choose for itself, would it choose to be always whole, or to pass through the crushing and striking?

Choice is a funny old thing. It is the freedom to choose one thing over another, and our most fundamental human right. I sometimes wonder what paths I would have chosen for myself, given the chance... long before I was born. What choices would you have made if you could? What difference do you think those choices would have made?

I didn't have a say in most of the things that happened. Or maybe I did. Perhaps we all, at one point or other, had a say in our destinies. As you journey through these pages, ask yourself at every turn - "what would I have chosen?"

Set in Nigeria, The Unwanted is the story of a girl whose learns that love is greater than hate, stronger than rejection, more powerful than fear.
