Was born in Youngstown, Ohio, and as a child, I had so many different experiences. I remember things and situations that people have forgotten all about. The things I remember are the things that I kept in my heart because they stuck with me. Many times, I feel like I have never left being that child that I once was. As the years left me, I stayed in the same place mentally because the little girl inside my mind never left. The times I remember spending with my dad are times I can never forget. I always wanted him in my life, especially when I would see my cousins or my friends with their dad. Losing him at a young age put a dent in my life growing up. I compared him to every man that came into my life. I compared him to every situation that I ran into. Although my father was no life. The most traumatizing situation was when our friend was killed on our porch, and Youngstown started the rumor that we set him up. My life changed forever when I and my brothers separated. My uncle and my cousin were like brothers to me, so they were considered my brothers.
