I am a gift , no matter what age , no matter how I look, there’s beauty in each stage. I am a gift, and I promise every day, when I look in the mirror I’ll say , I am a gift. I am a gift, I’ve loved really well, and ever year I’ve lived has a different tale to tell. I’ve made mistakes, have some regets. But I promise I’ll never forget I am a gift. There may be times when I forget the truth about me. When it seems time and youth are just marching on without me. That’s when I might need you to find me, and ever so gently remind me that I am a gift, a precious child. I’m put here on this earth but only for a while. So I make this vow and I say it with love, I am perfect and whole and enough, and I am a gift.

Why do we set aside just one day a year to say thanks to our military, what do we fear? They fought and protected us you see why can’t we say thanks daily , don’t you agree! Our veterans are special in all that they do protecting our country from the enemy’s rue. We let them fight for us as they try to win and we just remember them with a quick smile or saucy grin. Our military are truly a special crew working to keep us free constantly is what they do. Please let us bless them daily with prayers from above sending their families comfort and filling each of them with love. Our God above now comforts these special women and men keeping them safe from harm as His love has no end. Let us remember each one daily in our work and our play letting them know we will join them on that great coming home day.

Have a Wonderful Memorial Day,

If you have been watching or listening to the NBA Playoffs the Western Conference Finals game the Golden State Warriors vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder the Thunder has been bringing the Thunder on the Warriors. Steph Curry has not been MVP Steph Curry he scored 19 points on 6-for-20 shooting and went 2-for-10 on 3-pointers, I was thinking the Thunder can’t stop Steph long 3’s he can make long 3’s from Jacksonville to Las Angeles but they did. He looked it listless, careless and helpless at times. He missed jump shots he begged the Refs to make calls for him to help him out but they didn’t he got to the rim several times he couldn’t finish. Draymond has not been bringing the energy the Thunder fans has been booing him because he kick Steven Adams in the groin he has a plus minus of -43 in Game 3 with a -30 in Game 4 and had six of the Warriors’ s 21 turnovers. Coach Kerr said we have to look for some answers the Thunder gonna bring their answers if the Warriors don’t bring their answer tonight they are going fishing like the rest of the teams, the Thunder Won Sunday and Tuesday night. The Thunder has not been saying this but their game has been saying for them You don’t Count us Off You don’t tell us how Far we can go this game suppose to be the Warriors against the Spurs, the Thunder finish off the Spurs they are about to finish off the Warriors tonight that comes to show you you don’t count people off because you don’t know how Far they can go. Like me, the State of Florida counting me off having a Special Education it’s not fitting for College but I am in College studying for my Bachelor’s Degree in Sports Management. Like Markello Spivey , the Duval County Public Schools counting him off too having a Special Education he graduated from FAMU this year Magna Cum Laude with his Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and he is already on the Road telling his story. God can go beyond your limitations take you Far then anybody thought you could and he doesn’t count you off either.

Scripture to look up : Ephesians 3:20

LORD , you are loyal to those who are loyal, and you are good to those who are good. You are pure to those who are pure, but you are against those who evil. You save the humble, but you bring down those who are proud. LORD, you give light my lamp. The LORD, brightens the darkness around me. With your help I can attack an army. With God’s help I can jump over a wall. The ways of God are without fault. He makes me like a deer that does not stumble; he helps me stand on the steep mountains. He trains my hands for battle so my arms can bend a bronze bow. You protect me with your saving shield. You have stooped to make me great. You give me a better way to live, so I live as you want me to.
