Not being able to do my high school education, caused me to stand back

in most opportunities that came my way.

As I grew up and started working at the age of 12 years old, with a

traveling salesman.

I found that I was quick to grasp working skills.

Working at different companies I grabbed every opportunity to

learn more.
At a motor spare-parts company, a friend who frequently bought parts,
showed me how to weld.
After practicing as much as possible, I left the company and found a
job at another company, to sharpen my skills in welding.
I started at a company, building trailers and truck bodies.
It wasn't long, when the person building the bodies died and I was
chosen to build those refuse truck bodies, then the welders would
come afterwards and weld.
At one company I worked making tin-cans, I walked away from
my station, operating a machine, and learned to do gas-welding.
I then worked at Chrysler, doing much gas-welding, by this time
I was heavy into smoking pot, by then I was married first year,
it was eight months down the line, we discovered that we could
not have children of our own. This had such an affect on us, that
we decided to divorce, but she having grown up in a home that
believed in conversion. She always told me I must be saved.
at that time I said, I go to church, sing in the choir, what more do I need.
