This is a true story of a woman who grew up trying to buy love, and to be accepted. She ran from her troubles. She ran from men. She ran from the Lord. The more she ran the more trouble she got into, until she fell into a pit, which was her death bed. However, the Lord delivered her. She is no longer running because she ran into the right hands, the Lords. This story will touch your heart. This story will show you what God can do. He can turn a tragedy into a triumph. He can turn your life completely around, like the fairy tales of Cinderella, and Beauty and the Beast. Only, this is the real life of a woman who once was blind, but now she sees.

Six years ago my mother requested that I should write a story about how things were when we all were young. The experiences we had and endured along the way while making memories that would last a lifetime. The things that we often sat around talking about on so many occasions and would laugh so hard we would be in tears. My mother felt that other people would enjoy some of our fondest memories from my childhood as she did her best to raise her children as a single parent most of the time. My family felt it was a blessing to be able to look back and laugh about it all, what my mother referred to as the good old days. There are some stories you would not believe, but they a true some are funny and some are sad. My mother passed away on Thanksgiving day of 2006 so I am really trying to keep a promise that I made to her and keep our fondest and most cherished memories from my childhood and share it with the world. That is what my mother wanted me to do, I really hope you enjoy Before We Get Old (the good old days).
