The Pain Of Love

Linda Freeman

I grew up in a small country town name Autaugaville, Alabama, and at an early age. I began to write about my life growing up in the country, and things that I experienced as a child. My dad taught me how to ride my first motorcycle and many other things. We lived on a farm. The farm life was so interesting. My dad and grandfather had many farm animals. We also planted many vegetables, and I even picked cotton back then. I grew up when they still had out houses to use as bathrooms. Life was hard but getting better. Family were very close back then. I learned the importance of working hard and loving what you do and to never quit in life. I later got married to a pastor, and we had 3 beautiful children. Unfortunately, my husband passed at an early age of cancer, and I was left a widow raising 3 children alone. I did not know God was preparing me for things that were to come my way. I now know my purpose in life, and it is to be a servant to the Lord. I am today a minister since 2002, where I and my late husband were teachers of youths in our church, and I also work in the medical field to help take care of the sick in need. I job I love doing since 1999. I do enjoy writing, it helps me to meditate and hear God speak to me. It also refreshes me and gives me such a great joy! I found my peace and my strength in God. I often share my love for Christ and God with others daily. My purpose here is to lead by example from God and show love. I am a compassionate woman and believe in God. I love helping people. I do enjoy the out doors. I used to play sports, basketball, volleyball, and boxed in my youth years. I also loved drama classes where I loved acting. I love to sing and write beautiful words of love and life ups and downs. more…
