This book is dedicated to my children.
Thanks and giving all glory and honor to God.
The struggles, the struggles they were always there.
But a beautiful mother showed us no fear.
Didn’t we know they were always there?
Then my father died and it got even worse!
For she was mourning, and the bill collectors did not disperse.
Now I have to finish everything I set my mind to.
My mother says, "Be better than me.
For we are struggling, can’t you see?
I never wanted to accept all these truths.
I had to lie to myself or my mind would vanish.
For if I don’t break the chain, then my children will exclaim.
That we are struggling and I’ll be to blame.
—Blake Harrison

She never really got the chance to enjoy her teenage years that’s why it is so important to be a kid when you are a kid. Also be a young woman when you have the chance as well. There is plenty of time for babies. In the summertime ever since I can remember, my mother took me to my grandmother’s house in the country.

Now that I began to look back over my life, I did the same thing that my mother did, only I wasn’t quite as young. I was around twenty-three.
Right after my first child, I began to want to party. I thank God now that I am
