 I call myself  Tiffani Real because I have always worn my heart on my sleeve.  Abused as a child, I began running away from home at the age of eleven.  After being declared a person in need of supervision, I ended up in numerous foster homes, group homes, and a detention center.  At the age of 15, I became an emancipated minor.  I dropped out of school, became a mother at 17, had three children by the age of 19, and to the outside looking in, my life was doomed.  I was in two very abusive relationships and became the mother of seven children............
 
Another statistic....No!
 
I volunteered at hospitals, Meals on Wheels, and homeless shelters.  I donate items to The Salvation Army two times a year.  I went back to school and received my GED and attended colleges in Macon, GA, and Syracuse, NY.  I became a Certified Nursing Assistant, working in nursing homes, hospitals, and did private care duty in residents homes.  Not wanting to become a nurse I got my class B CDL license and became a bus driver, driving for Head Start and the worst elementary and middle schools in Syracuse.  A year after my divorce I moved to Atlanta, Ga and became a driver for Georgia State University and now I drive for the transit bus system called MARTA. 
 
In June of 2011, I found out that the man I know to be my father is not and that I am the product of an affair.  The very next day, Michael Jackson passed away.  I has been hard at time dealing with both.

Do I still have problems?
 
Lack of money, homelessness, and  no transportation are things that I live with everyday and yet I am able to do the one thing I love more than life and that is write.  I am now a published author and it is a dream come true.  None of this could have happened if God wasn't in the picture.  All of the bad things in my life have made me into the strong person that I am today.  I blame no one and I am committed to being the best me I can be.  I dedicate my life to giving my all to make this world a better place.... 
 
I don't know what lies ahead but I do know that with God in my life all things are possible..............
 
 

 





In July 2010 my book, "The Mind & Soul of Tiffani Real was released.  Til this day, I can't say that I was very excited.  What makes me the most proud are the response I have gotten from the readers.  Being recognized on the Atlanta streets and being told that I'm an inspiration or that my book helped someone, confirms that a small part of God's work is being done through me.  That job is my highest honor, next to being a mother!

In November 2010, I celebrated my birthday feeding the homeless.  It was my first event and I was happy to have so many loving people participate.  Duafe Salon and Spa provided free hair washes, shaves, and haircuts!  Authors and publishing companies donated books, others donated clothes and toiletries, and I can't forget the ones that were with me on the front line.  I dressed down for the event and chose not to speak because the day was about the people that were being served.  We took pictures, talked, laughed, the fellas watched the game, and for one day they weren't homeless.  They were home!




April 1, 2011 I had the Reading for a Better Future event and it did my heart good to have a school that was willing to participate in something that I was passionate about.  I love to read and I was thrilled to know that local business owners and authors were willing to volunteer their time for such a great cause.  After our assembly I spoke to a third grade class.  I didn't want to stand in front of the class and talk.  I wanted to have a conversation with the children.  I cared about what they had to say and they were happy to know that someone was there to actually listen.  One male student had tears in his eyes, one male student got up and gave me a hug, and one little girl that was quiet and shy really opened up.  I told the kids that no matter what anyone tells them; they can be anything they want to be in life, and to always have a backup for the backup for the backup!  A month later I was at the school and a little girl was yelling, "Miss Tiffani!  Miss Tiffani!"  I turned around and it was the shy girl from the class I spoke to.  She gave me a hug and told me that she remembered everything I told her.  I took her picture and she gave me a huge smile.  I knew at that moment that I truly am capable of making a difference!



My next event will be the best and I will post details soon!!!!
