    About this ebook

    What I've tried to do in this story is to write a balanced account of those 20 years of living with joy, interest, and some enlightenment for others. Also while showing how, in my own way, I sorted out and resolved some of those confusing and difficult conflicts eventually. I wrote this story on and off over quite a few years, whenever the mood moved me. While writing there were a few surprises revealed to me by my Aunt about the argument that she had with my Mother. Mother thought that she was leaving me with the Grandparents too often. Charlene gave insight as to why I made a certain decision at the time. My journey from the second that I invited Jesus Christ into my heart and life, made every difference in how I lived and made those decisions (wrong or right) as I walked along life's road. So, if you gain something from reading "my story", I'll praise the lord for your benefit and pass on the glory to Him.
