I started my life on a rocky path. And 3 severe traumas by age 3. Went to a ridiculous war. Came home. Had an unsurvivable TBI. I have had a very tough go at it. Yet I'm at peace. I'm smiling. I'm completely functional. My life is a testament to God. And all you can achieve with him on your side. He always is regardless.
