On this day August 15th 2024
I awaken to the Golden Age of 50
For reaching this day in my life, I give honor to God and the Angel's for being the beacon in guiding my life
I can reflect over the years, vividly remembering everyTestimony, Miracle, and Blessing that been bestowed upon my life
I will always be appreciative for my parents who've made the ultimate sacrifices for me, raising me with a firm hand, being direct, and rightfully disciplining me
I can literally say that they raised me to be a man before I could sit in the driver's seat
Now as a man and husband, I am surely grateful for my wife over 24 years, so beautiful, so sweet
Together since high school, our journey began in the total of years 33
We were Blessed with two children that have now grown to seek an higher education in the fields of their dreams
Of them, I'm very proud and humbled
I'm also humbled from all lifes experiences
The many people that I have met and came in contact with
The good, the bad, the successfully happy, the hard working living check to check barely hanging on to everything they work hard for, and everying they own
I have learned from them all
To the youth starting their lives, needing motivation, or seeking advice
I will share these words:
Have a goal, dream BIG for your life
Make the right decisions while navigating through life
Live each day as if their is no tomorrow
Balance Faith in your busy life
Have no regrets
Find your purpose and you'll never work a day in your life
