What is a moment that made you realize you were stronger than you thought?  Good Morning Everyone 🙏!  How are all of doing today?  I want all of you to know that I couldn’t do anything without God in the first place.  Well, I have to answer this question by saying that I was enrolled at the University of Toledo in Toledo Ohio years ago; I had always thought that achieving a goal such as finishing school would be very difficult.   This is because at the time I really didn’t have faith in myself in the first place.   I will admit that it had taken me a while to adjust to the college life in the first place.   I had thought for a very long time that attending colleges was just like high school again.  At that time I really needed a lot of outside assistance from someone or somewhere.  This is when all of my instructors at the University of Toledo decided to implement a plan of action in order for me to achieve my goals.   First, I had to go through some diagnostic testing just to see how I actually fit in academically.   I will remind all of you that I had a learning disability and I really didn’t know it.  I just know that at the time I was making a transition from living inside of a homeless shelter to living inside of a residence of my own.  I only know that I was trying to find and navigate my way inside of a large city such as Toledo Ohio.   I know that my environment was not conducive towards my personal needs.   So therefore I was living inside of a Crack House on the Northwest side of Toledo Ohio and it was not easy to deal with.   I had close friends who were college students who were very concerned about me.   I just wanted to do something constructive rather than allow myself to sink inside of the pit of despair.   I knew that I accepted the challenge of living in the environment itself but do something about it.  Yes I will admit that I was living from house to house and neighborhood to neighborhood just to survive.   At least I started praying for myself and there were other people who were praying for me as well. So I did graduated from college with my Associates Degree on Saturday June 12, 1993: while I was still living in a bad environment.   Yes I still have a learning disability but I cannot allow that to become a stumbling block for me.  I do know that I had to move inside of a house with people who were very supportive and very understanding towards me.  Yes I will admit that I used to sleep inside of classrooms overnight on campus just to study in peace without any distractions.  I also know that I graduated with my Bachelors Degree within a two year period.   I know that I really owe a lot of people a big thank you for allowing of their support.   God and Jesus Christ were the captain of my ship. I was only a sailor on a voyage to success.  Whenever you decide on doing anything in life positively then you will achieve anything in your personal life.  Some people would ask themselves what we’re my true intentions?  I just know that I couldn’t achieve my goals without God’s help. I want to also thank everyone who have supported me along the way.  Do you know that once you make it up in your mind that you really want to do something right please ask God and Jesus Christ to lead you throughout your journey of life.  God and Jesus Christ will not let you down and you definitely will not let yourself down in the process.  Never give up on God and definitely do not give up on yourself.  Never allow distractions of any kind to override your judgment. Remember it is God who is doing for us more than we are doing for ourselves.  God will always pick you up off of the ground when your enemies wouldn’t.  Never allow others who have bad intentions for you to overthrow your own judgment and confidence in yourself.
