Tracy Collamore

In 2007, my life was heading nowhere fast. I found myself sitting in jail yet again. I had felt so broken and so lost for a very long time. Each and every time I would sit in jail I would vow to do things different and each and every time I got out I would be right back at the beginning of going back to jail. What a vicious cycle I had myself in. I felt toxic to everyone I came in contact with, especially myself. This was not the life I had imagined when I was growing up.
Broken, confused and feeling all alone, I did the only thing I could think of, I called my mom. Of course my mom was use to these collect calls asking for money but what my mom heard that night was the sobs of a little girl saying "I can't do this anymore mom." My mom didn't scold or say I told you so she said " have you thought about turning to God." Wow.
Needless to say that conversation changed my life. Some pretty fantastic changes happened while I was sitting in jail for the last time. First being that I now had a friend, his name was God, whom lifted the weight of the world of my shoulders. The second being the man who would become my husband, chose that jail stay at that time in my life to reconnect with me after three years apart. There he was my once love relationship that I had toxified with my life style, walking back into my life. During the course of that visit he let it be known that he still loved, had always loved me and wanted a life with me but only if I was done with the craziness. My reply was "I'm soooooooo done."
I did go to prison for a short while, where I continued my relationship with God, built a foundation for a marriage with a great man and reconnected with my mom and dad without the haze of drugs and alcohol.
Over the past 6 years I have become a totally different person. I have grown my life in the faith of what God has brought me out of. I am grateful for each and everyday of this new life.
I have realized that with growth comes the need to expand my horizens and that is why I need to make some changes in my life to continue to grow. So with a little help from above I have decided to make my own way by venturing out in the areas I feel drawn to. I enjoy helping others and hope by starting my blog, I can tackle some of the issues many people face. I also am looking into opportunities to earn my own income from a homebased business.
