Growing up everyone acquirers an image about how life works. I grew up thinking that if you were good, life would be good back. There was a period in my life that I thought I was wrong. Eventually I realized that no matter how you act, weather it be good or bad, life is going to throw you curve balls. The key to life is how you handle those tough situations, because sometimes good things may come from them. When I was eleven years old my father passed away, and to some this may ruin your life or at least have some awful impact on you. All this occurrence did to me was put more confusion in my head. I just thought that I didn’t have a dad because I had a mom. I never knew my father at all because he wasn’t a very nice person. My mother wouldn’t allow me to visit him because he would just bring me to the bar and get drunk. When I would ask questions she would just say we would talk about it later. I really had no idea what was going on. When I got old enough to understand my mother sat me down and explained the situation. She told me how my father used to beat her very badly. She told me that one night he was so fucked up on alcohol and drugs that he beat her with a two by four piece of wood and nearly killed her, but even worse killed my sister that my mom was pregnant with at the time. I couldn’t understand why god would let that happen to someone, or why someone could even have the urge to act like that. I really couldn’t believe it, but it made me understand things much better. Not why things happened, but why I didn’t have a father. I decided that it was ok though because a lot of kids didn’t have two parents.
