Writing was something that I did naturally, but it was not my passion. I wrote a letter from time to time when I was younger. I wrote prisoners for eighteen years or more, and I wrote a few gospel songs and some poetry. But now that I have gotten older, I began to write my life story. And to my surprise, many are willing to read the things I have gone through. For instance, the Penny Ministery, Playing the Lottery and winning many days straight in a row. I was winning so easily and dreaming numbers until it scared me. I write in my book how I began to win everyday. I also speak about how I experienced a terrible Urinary Tract Infection. I tell how I went to the doctors, and the doctors were closed, and my faith had to see me through. I was in pain in the morning, and by that night, it was gone.

My mother had eight children, and I was the second child born. The more each child was born, the worse the fighting among my parents became, and more frequent. One time they were fighting, my father knocked out my mother's front tooth. And because my father knocked out her front tooth, she retaliated by cutting his neck with a rug cutter. And the blood went everywhere! Food became more scarce, and so did the heat, water gas in the house, and clothes to wear.

Many years later, I got married and had to fight my first husband, just as my mom had to fight my dad.

My mother died when I was nineteen. And eight years later, I began going to church and thinking that going to church was the right thing to do. But people in the church were very judgmental. And that added more stress to my already stressful life. And God had to help me with being judged by the church and my miserable life. Telling me what to wear and what not to wear almost ran me crazy! Constantly telling me what I could do and what I could not do! I needed a hug, I did not need a judge!
