I didn’t have an easy childhood it was filled with pain and disappointment. I was the only child of a young single mother. My father was not in the home due to his illness. I grew up being teased and tormented because kids that I was different. I was quite shy and reserved. I often played alone. Many of my friends called me a home body. I went threw many trials and tribulations. I felt pain from my moms common law husband. I have forgiven him for his sins although it has caused me damage. I was in and out of the hospital. Doctors did not know what was wrong with me at the time. Later in life they found out what was wrong with me and it turned out I had MCTD (Mixed Connective Tissue Disease). This is an Autoimmune disease that attacks the immune system. This disease consist of Lupus, Raynaud’s disease, Myositis, Carpal Tunnel to name a few. I’m giving all of this to the Lord. I was told that I wouldn’t be able to have children but, God played a hand in that because I end up having  five boys.

Life is rough but with prayer the journey can go a little smoother. In my experiences I learned to never take life for granted because it is all so precious. I lost my grandmother to breast cancer and my father to pulmonary embolism. I have shed many tears and asked God to make it better in many areas and that has happened. Yes, there are areas that will take some time. I know that I can overcome anything.

I use to have a problem with people. I use to think that they were always talking about me and hated me. This is a complex that needs rectifying. Now I’m better in that area. I have experienced the money troubles and marital issues. I prayed to my savior and this too is better. Watching the news on television can put anyone in a mood that is depressing. Life is a challenge but, without these experiences you wouldn’t appreciate it. So well life gives you a great big blow breath and pray and this will assist you on a better journey.
