When life gets you down, have faith. That´s what they told me. People always told me as a child that having faith in God always helped. Others said to turn to Satan and he´ll help. I tend to lean towards God, but sometimes, like everyone else, I sin. I try to stray away, but somehow every time I feel close to God something like drugs or alcohol pulls me back. My parents died when I was seven. They were in a car accident. I don´t like to think about it much, it hurts. It´s obvious they went to heaven. They were the most religious people I knew, granted I knew very few people. My parents always told me that you speak to God through Jesus and if you didn´t accept Jesus then you don´t accept God. Don´t get me wrong I am a christian and I'm very strong in my faith. It's just that I've always been told lies all my life. I´ve been told my parents abandoned me, that my sister was murdered. I was told horrible things. Things far from the truth. All I ever wanted was to know the truth.
