I remember when I was younger I used to study with Jehovah Witnesses. I stopped studying with them because of the behavior of their daughter. They put a lot of responsibility on me that they didn’t require for their daughter. When in my eyes she was always ill behaved. I realized my mom would not tolerate that type of behavior.

I remember feeling like I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I was a single parent. I did a lot for my family and my hearts desires was no where in sight.
