Then? Or Now?

This is a new begining, for you and me.
Hello, my name is Zamora Ki and I am an artist, some people only assume that when a person says artist that they mean music. Well yes I do sing but I also dance,design,write, and place together things. I started drawing out clothes when I was only 6 years old and I have been doing it ever since. I have been singing since I was 8 and I do it more now than I ever have. I have been dancing since I was 13, the reason I started was because I would come up with dances to music and make routines out of them. I have been writing since I was 12. I have written The Passionate Lover, The Passionate Lover Returns, One Begining, Gregors Acdemy, and much more(I have tons of short stories). Now people may ask me why I am doing all of this, well when I was younger I didnt really have much and hated being different from everyone else, I tried sooo hard to fit in with everyone else, trying to alter my personality. The older I got the worse I felt out of place, my family didnt really help me they only blamed me for more things that I never did. So when I got to be 13 everything changed for me, I was spiraling out of control, my life was no where, where it needed to be and I still hadnt found any friends that I felt comportable being around. There were nights where I would plan a suicidal note but everytime I thought about how many people i would hurt even though they didnt see just how bad they were hurting me, so I gave up trying. It took me awhile to realize that I was never alone because I had God along my side the whole time. When I was 15 I went to this summer camp. I was soo nervous that I thought of backing out and not even showing up, but I am glad that I went because that camp taught me so much. "Take what you have to make what you need." It taught me that there are people out there who are like me and that I dont have to change to please them because they like me for me, and although the camp was about the community,it taught me that no matter what I can always return to home. SO now, I am 17 years old, I have struggled with depression, abuse, eating disorders, and much more but through it all God has been by my side and now I'm here to live out my purpose :).
