My biography

I am now 26 years of age a lot years on this blue planet we call earth, I have been through lots. I was born at North Suburban Hospital in Thornton Colorado. I was raised for a few years right next to Water World the biggest theme park in the USA, I don’t remember living there but my mom said my dad and her lived there. My sister was born around almost 2 years after I was, we lived at both my grandmas because until I was 6 years of age, my dad was an alcoholic and addicted to drugs, so my mom said it wasn’t going to work. I remember my mom and dad fighting when I was kid and my grandma had bring us kids across a sticker patch to get away from my dad, because he was abusing my mom. My mom told me that my dad (Andre Alan Manzanares) was sick and she needed to start a better life and of coarse when all this was happening my mom wasn’t happy so she did cheat on my dad which is common for a women to do when a women isn’t happy, my mom got pregnant with my half brother Tyler Ray Manzanares at the time my step dad didn’t know so my dad thought was his because we have anglo’s on my dads side even though we are hispanic, because we have french in us. My step dad stepped up to plate and raised his kid and us kids because my dad couldn’t he had gotten so sick with booze and the drugs. My step dad was very strict and it got worse when there friends who we called auntie and uncle (rob and kelly) invited them to church my parents turned into religious nuts everything they did revolved around the church, and I wasn’t to sure if they went to church for GOD or they went for support, they were better people for it I suppose. Although we were god believing people we were very poor my parents owed taxes so we never seen anything at the end of year, my grandma would claim us and buy what she could for us and that was the only time when we shopped for clothes. Much different in today’s times, we shopped walmart specials and back in the 90’s clothes weren’t made to last! We often went to payless for shoes and they were just as bad. We didn’t give much about what people thought we would dance in the car, fart burp whatever and it was just FUNNY! Nowaday it would probably be gross, happiness wasn’t as astounding as today with the support of social media, so we did good in that aspect we knew had to have a good time. Me and my brother were close when we were kids he would do any bad thing I was doing just looking up to me, and what did I know then lol I am still learning to this day. We had a little dog while I lived at my parents he was full breed American Eskimo with papers he was a beautiful dog although sadly just before I was kicked out of my parents when I was 12 he was dying from seizers. I moved into my grandmas and it was good for me because I me time not brother and sister time all the time, which was great I had all cable channels my own room, it was great, I lifted weights and got really big, I was like a meat head. It was short lived because I started experimenting with alcohol and drugs myself and I ended up getting into a car that wasn’t mine it was a Ford Taurus that had just been sitting at townhomes where my grandma and I lived, There was a screw driver in the ignition I turned it and the car started and I was already drunk off my grandmas everclear that she kept openly in a liquor cabinet, So I heard a voice say take the car for joy ride *Don’t listen to voices* I went for drive I almost got hit by semi driver because I didn’t know how to drive I then made it all the way by Thornton High School where about 20 cops had there guns drawed on me, and I was screaming out the window that I didn’t know how to put into park, and when I got out of the car the car went rolling towards the cops, and that was when officer jumped in and stop the car they put me in cuffs and I got out that day. My grandma HAD enough of me so she dropped me at my dads and grandmas where things got worse because now me and my dad were both using together, I was going to a secondary school where I wasn’t doing good it just got worse, I got into it with the school resource officer cop and he massed me and before that he dropped me off at a program for truant kids called the LINK. I made horrible friends infact so bad that I was drugged with something that has made me go in out of hospital for a lot of years now. So in the hospital’s a lot of things happen there, and that’s a different story. I lost my great grandma June 1st 2014 she suffered from Alzhimers (sp) desease she couldn’t even remember me at the end or anybody for that matter,  I loved my grandma a lot she mean’t a lot me, even though I was small I still have GREAT memories. After finally freeing my self through the power of god I met the love of my life and hopefully it’s a happily ever after her name is Rachel and I love her with everything I got, we have daughter named Destiny who I consider to be my own because her dad never come around which is sad. We as a family have been trough really rough times and good times, and I hope everyday I see more of those good days, and never look back. When it seem the world is on your shoulders its time to believe in god and reconnect with nature and love in the physical world and the spiritual world. In 2012 April 1st I lost my dad he was shot 3 times in the chest all the while my dad was unarmed according to Colorado law if you feel your life is in danger you can use lethal force. It tore me apart because me and my dad were close and he would tell me all he has was me because felt that everybody had turned on him. It was so bad on me that it could of been reason I went to hospital a year and half ago. We still make ends meet and we are always working on ways to make our lives more healthier and keep us strong for the future.
