I am sure I am missing alot of things on his life but that's the jist. May I ask how your life became bad?

Heh, I'm the total opposite of him. My life changed for the better when I knocked off all this god shit. Hmmm, it was mostly due to my parents. Things started to get rocky, my mother got addicted to heroin and my father and I moved out. Then about three months later he died from a stroke. My mother ran off something and my only relatives left were my brother (in prison) and my uncle (who was on a sabbatical in South Africa). I was alone. I had no money, no shelter, no food. I had to sleep on the streets for almost a month. Basically, I had hit rock bottom, my life couldn't suck more. So as I was sitting on the stairs of the church I basically had a moment of clarity and basically told Jesus to feck off and denounced my religious beliefs since they really didn't help much. So finally a social worker comes along and throws me in a group home (aka: Orphanage) where I stayed for a couple more months. I hated it there and eventually I worked out a deal with one of my friends and I ran away and crashed at his place for awhile.

I stayed there for almost a year. I got the odd job here and there and I collected my father's death benefits and I was saving up some serious cash. Well that unxle I was talking about earlier died in a car accident and he willed me his house. So here I am today, living in my late uncles house, girlfriend cooking breakfast, and a BMW in the driveway. I am content.
