A long time ago, when I was a much younger man, and a student at the most prestigious high school in the city of Greensboro, something happened to me that would change my life forever. This segment of time was during my fourth period English class, and the first week of a new school year. […]

Well, we can finally put the year of 2020 to rest. I am grateful for what last year presented. Every test and each challenge served its purpose in my life. As it states in the book of Psalms in the bible, chapter 119: it was good that I was afflicted. I will add to that […]

To say the year of 2020 has been overwhelming would be an understatement. For as long as I can remember, there has always been some mystique etched in my mind about the year 2020.  What will happen? What won’t happen?  By now, I believe that everyone has their own version of what the year has […]

I am not a spring chicken, and what that clearly means is that I have been around the track a few times. That also indicates that I have seen a few things, some good and some bad. My decisions haven’t always been correct, and there have been moments of difficulty where my actions didn’t make […]

Just as the pressure intensifies, I have learned that my determination should as well. I must remember the reason why I started and what […]

If we never allow ourselves to experience the things that we imagine, we are not really living our lives according to what God purposed us for. To achieve the impossible requires fortitude and determination. You must also be willing to let go of somethings that you previously thought was a part of you. Letting go […]

One of the hardest things for me to understand has been what is my purpose in life. I’m the kind of individual who has seen a lot and experienced a lot. I’ve had my shares of ups and downs, both good and some bad ones. While everything has provided me with an opportunity to learn, […]
