Not So Picture Perfect

For my whole life I have had difficulties. My Father was the local singer at a church, and a troubling alcoholic. My 22 year old brother was born abnormally. He was cursed with learning disabilities as a child. My father was not very approving of him. My father later cheated on my mother, I put the blame on myself for years. My brother is a heroin addict and he has taken every thing from my family; mind, soul, and possession. He had a baby boy almost two years ago. The mother of my nephew is a drug addict as well. We took her under our wing to help her, and she stabbed us in the back. My mother now has full custody of my nephew and we will show him a real life of love and appreciation. I will do anything and everything i have to in order to be a successful person in this lifetime. I have made my way though all of this and I'm prepared to go through more. My ambitions are too great to give up. It's time for me to break the bond of sin and excel. I cannot wait to show the world what I have.
