Life is Love Love is Life!!!! Robert's Life
I was born March 6, 1967 in Ohio. My Mother took my Older brothers and sisters an I back down into the hills of Southeastern Kentucky. My time there was limitd but forever will it embark on my life!!!! The tall Mountains surrounded my family and me back in that holler. The comfort I feel from the Mountains to this day is indescribable; it is a feeling of being at homeconnected someway or in someway to the earth it'self. We use to slide down the conveyor belts of an abandoned Coal Temple, swim in the rivers an creeks an had absolutely no worries. I contracted pneumonia an my Aunt gave me Coal Oil!!! They said if this old hill remedy didn't kill me I'd be fine!!! Well it worked; I'm still here!!! My Father Got custody of all the children in their divorce which was rare back in those days!!!! Growing up was hard but not as hard as it was for my father!!!He raised us Kids up very well educatd and housed properly But my tenacious attitude was a bit harder to get around. I Left home at 16 my aptitude was in music, drawing, partying an women!!!! The Latter become my forefront of my Life. This caused a great deal of hardship and hard feelings between my father an me. I didn't want to be held down. I wanted to be my own keeper; Free of curfew an my father riding my --- all the time. I wanted to come and go s I pleased. In this thinking, I used an Illogical rationalization of my fathers and step Mothers faults to justify my disobedient attitude. So I Left at 16!!!!Some good but more Bad things happened than good So I moved back up to Ohio got a Job went o school Thanks to the help of my US Army recruiter. I went into the Army more of necessity than wantin to that December The fact was I couldn't make it on my own. I had no Idea what llay ahead but I'd meet it head on!!! I excelled in my Boot camp incluing weapons an survival, an first aid. Got Married in the service also wwas married for 19 years. But had to divorce her she was cheating on
