I grew up in dallas, we lived in large house from about 1986-1990. My mother was very sweet but she had to work all the time, my grandmother usually took care of things. We moved and went to inner city of dallas, it was much more crime, and clubs that were near our house. My grandmas house was built in the 1920s, it had very old technology but i acutally liked it. It madee me intrestd in the old way of doing things. They had attic fan, a centrial heat that was from the 1940s but it didnt work, but still it was intresting. I went to inner city school, it wasnt bad, it was acutally fun. I staye in the area because it was near my house. I had friends, played in city streets, and it was really a fun time. I used to like to restore the house, back ... my grandmother had lived there since the 1970s, she retired in 1986 from working ath the hilton. And she kinda ... just let the house slowly decay. I wanted to resore the house, even though i was in young childhood, i rerember as a got older, i had moved into my aunts house, but i would see her over the weekends, i was around 13-14 and i got a air conditioning unit back working - it was a window unit but i rerember it was very big and powerful, it was from 70s it wa like 2-3 ton unit. I got that working, then i started putting the house toegeether, i put pictures back, cleaned around. Reorganized old furiture. And i rerember i got an old tv from the 70s, it was sony, and it work well. I put it in the living room, organized it to make it look like a living room. And on saturdays when i came to see her, we rented movies, scary movies, thrillers i loved them. And rerember she used to talk about the past, when she was married and got divoiced in the 1950s. She told me alot about the old news, and i staryedd up late and heard her life story, and the news that was around during that time. And it was seemed, even though the house was old, and my grandma was older, it seemed intresting, because i made it into a house to watch videos and restory everything back, best as could. The house now has been remodeled, its a bed and breakfast house now. I moved through high school it was tough, and i went through alot of bad times, but it was fianlly over with. I went to college, went though many studies, i didnt stay for long, but wrote for newspaper and went through IT classes. And i've started life again to restart a career. I've had to find higher power, to move through all this. And i want to inspire people, with new ideas, and advice. And to have a truth check in it, to make it authentic and actually work, advice, ideas. I don't like writing just nick neck advice or ideas. You know something to inspire people to be better. So, i guess the advice is don't give up. That's generic and well heard advice but at least you don't lose your drive and focus. Floating and procrastination are not a good mix. That's all, thanks for reading. Blessed be to you
