As a young girl, Brenda always wondered why people would act the way they did. She seemed to take to others who seemed to care about one another and watched how they interacted. She was a quiet, shy child growing up in Vincent, Alabama, coming from a dysfunctional family. Brenda was bullied by some of her classmates, mostly girls, but there was one incidence where it was her fifth grade teacher.
She changed her mind one day and decided she will not become a victim of dysfunctionality. She learned from her experiences and from other people on how to become independent and live a happy life. Brenda was on an uncharted road and asked God to walk with her along the way and guide her. She worshipped Him, and He walked with her every step she made, even ones she had to correct, but she did and that's because she was on the uncharted road. Brenda is living a proud, happy, and healthy life in New Orleans with a part of her family. The other part lives in Childersburg, Alabama, where she still visits a few times a year.
