My Journal… My Journey…
We live in a society that puts so much emphasis on wealth, social class, materialism, technology... and the primary mechanism to obtain any one of those things is M-O-N-E-Y. I probably spend hours everyday thinking about how I can create, find, or obtain more money for my family. Money drives our economy. To me money... Continue Reading →
I find that so many people are confused when it comes to how they should apply wisdom in their lives. Life can present you with so many variations of life situations to where it can be difficult to ascertain how to use wisdom in decision-making.

Just a few days ago was Black Friday, which is supposedly the day out of the year where people spend the most money. People opened up their wallets to purchase gifts and spent... Continue Reading →
One thing I will never understand is why people are so afraid of change. Some people will never look to build a relationship with someone outside of their circle of friends... or better put, "safety net".

I know that I should be positive, grateful, and hopeful for my future. I should be smiling with joyful gladness about all that God has blessed me with. I probably should be dancing and shouting words of appreciation knowing that it is only through prayers and God's grace that I am even alive, knowing all... Continue Reading →
