IAMFORGIVEN

It is better to _, than to __.

It wasn’t until I went to Africa that I found out that living in a western culture, that was filled with abundance, numbed me to how oblivious I was to walking in the ways of this world. Although I didn’t come from an extremely wealthy family, we had more than any little African child could…

You Are Worth It!

Living in the shadows of somebody who never sees you as being good enough really can take a toll on how you live your life. It can be manageable at first but then it gets harder to put up with. Before you know it, you are down, emotionally drained and want to give up on…

WHY ME?

The older I get the more I realize how hard this life can be. Things don’t always go according to plan and when things are really good, somebody is always there to stomp on your parade. Sometimes we even encounter things in life that can be a huge blow to us, like death or disease;…

Get It Yourself

Growing up my dad use to tell me if I wanted something, I have to go get it myself because he wasn’t going to pay for it. So at a young age that is what I did. At 14 I went out and got a job working at a dry cleaner shop for a big…

Relationships are a Team Sport!

I absolutely love team sports. Just the idea of having to work with others to accomplish the same goal can turn into a fun challenge. The teams that do well are the ones that have the players that can learn how to adapt and work within each others strengths, while understanding their own. The greatest…
