The Struggle Of A Young Man Growing Up In Houston

Post on my Blog...

As a young boy growing up in Houston, the struggles + hardships I endured, yes I had 3 older siblings but anyone knows that it's not always of best interests that we had to hang around each other, even having an elementary school right across your house, friends weren't available as I call it. In the 2nd grade I had problems, it seemed as though it was the beginning of my life... I was a skinny kid but one day I grew, it was as though I sprouted, always dark hair, brown eyes, olive skin...

My favorite pastimes were to be outside, the area around our house on Atwell Dr. in south west of Houston was like most, but mine was different, not many kids?

Plus I had to be sent across Houston to go to a school who had special needs... thru out the rest of my schooling I was in a classroom, gym and art was the only classes I was allowed to do, I had some friends but only seen at school. This was one of my types of doodles I used to draw, I call him Ruff...

If you have a doodle you like to share, I love to see it... It's really boring in my world, I can't even see outside, it's like living in a submarine...

I'm also a father, I like to send my prayers + condolences to all the families in Newtown, CT...

If anyone has a comment, write to me... you will get a reply...
