Grew up in Clarksville and Dayton, TN. At 14 years old my family decided to move to Texas, where my aunt and uncle live, to better our living situations. We were less fortunate then some and had days where what we could eat became a struggle. As I grew up I became a bitter and cold hearted kind of person that lead me to drugs, trouble, and joining a gang. Joy did not exist in me unless it was at the extent of someone else's pain. That's why I can say there is a God who loves me because I'm no where near the old me. I have joy and all I want to do is express that joy and love God has given me! Struggles still come but I no longer feel like I deal with alone. Not only is God my healer and Father but He also gave me great people to guide me in my hard moments.
