-As a young child as far as I remember, I had insomnia. I have 2 sisters and I remember
laying there listening to the girl sleep wishing it wransweas me as well. I remember being
kind of sad most of the time. I would have these visions or flashes of people I had ever
met, and they wanted to tell me something. I tried to talk to my parents about it but they just
told me that it wasn’t possible. I kept it to myself until my uncle married to other woman .
she was fascinated by what I told her. She really tried to encourage it but it effected my
schooling and I couldn’t sit still. The teachers called me a day dreamer. They said it was like
I was looking out of a window in a room with no windows. We were poor and we were
picked on a lot until, I was scared beyond belief and I stood up for myself. I was number 6
or 7 and everyone said I was defferent from the rest of my family.i always worried about
everything. My mind was always going always searching for answers to my question that
nobody else asked. I smile d all the time I always felt it made people smile even when they
didn’t always want to. I always had friends but I was ok being alone. That was my
childhood !! I eventually stopped having the flashes, I moved away from home at thirteen to
live with my older sister and things were better for a while.
