If you could relive one day from your past, which day would it be and why?

If you could relive one day from your past, which day would it be and why?  I would have to say February 15 2015 I got baptized on a very cold Sunday morning at Fort McKinley United Methodist Church and I was very happy because I was born again by getting baptized in the name of the Father Son and the Holy Spirit.   I felt a spirit that had replaced my bitter spirit that I had had for a very long time.   I have been going through transitions in my life for 11 consecutive years because I lost my apartment during the week of Christmas on Monday December 23 2024 because of a fist fight that I gotten into over a misunderstanding that I actually had with another resident at Wentworth HiRise Apartments in Dayton Ohio.  I was arrested for an assault charge.   Right now, I am not allowed to go back to the premises and neighborhood in Dayton, Ohio.   Another time that I would like to talk about was on Saturday June 17 1995 at 10:00am at the University of Toledo Glassbowl Stadium when I officially graduated from the University of Toledo with my bachelor’s degree and I was extremely happy because I had completed all of my requirements to earn my college degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Toledo College Program.  I was going to 30 years old when I graduated from college. My mother and sister had driven 150 miles from Dayton, Ohio, just to spectate my college graduation ceremony.  

What is the last movie that made you cry?

What’s the last movie that made you cry?

What is the last movie that made you cry?  The movie Charlotte’s Web is the movie that made me cry.  It is true that I actually cried because a spider died in the movie.  I will admit that I even cried during the movie Outsiders that I had seen during the 1980s simply because Johnny Ralph Machado died after rescuing some children during a house fire in the movie. I even cried during the movie Schindler List, and I really didn’t finish watching the movie. I will admit that I actually do have my own heart on my sleeve right now.  I will also admit that I am a very emotional person.   If I would have been filmed in a movie; it would be called The Life and Times of Anthony Joseph Hopkins from Dayton Ohio which is the title of my forthcoming manuscript that will become the title of my autobiography because it would be a real true story of my entire life living in the Dayton Ohio Toledo Ohio and finally Charlotte North Carolina for a portion of my life while I was living in these three cities.  It will focus on every aspect of my life, including all of my ups and downs throughout my 61 years of existence. The movie and autobiography will be totally accurate and reality-based.  I would like to donate all of my proceeds to charity as well as to give all of my first fruits of my increase to God and Jesus Christ who are in charge of my life right now.  At least I can officially say that I will always put God and Jesus Christ first in every aspect of my life forever.  I will admit that I am still a Work in Progress. I also will admit that everything that I have in my life, and this includes my breath of life, all belongs to God. Therefore, my presence while I am living on Planet Earth is only temporary.  My everlasting home is with God and Jesus Christ in Heaven with them forever and ever Amen and Amen 🙌 🙏 ❤️ 💖 💗 ♥️ 🙌 🙏.  God knew me before I was officially made inside of my mother’s womb.   It is God who has plans for my life long before I was born.  It is God who knows how long I will live in advance 🙏 .  God knows all of my personal flaws and struggles as well as all of my expectations in my life.  Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.  In Jesus’ name, Amen 🙏 🙌 ✨️ ❤️ 💖. I hope that God has revealed your true purpose to all of you.  Thank you, and God bless all of you worldwide 🌐 🙏 ❤️.

If you could erase one event from history, what would it be?

If you could erase one event from history, what would it be?

If you could erase one event from history, what would it be?  I have three important events from history, and it would be Slavery in the United States and the entire world.   Another event would be the Jewish Holocaust and the Satan causing Adam and Eve to sin and go against God simply because of Satan transforming himself into a snake 🐍 by contradicting God by causing Eve to eat from the a tree that Adam and Eve weren’t supposed to eat from because God told them that they will die.  This is written in Genesis, the 3rd chapter.  This is called the Fall of Man.  Another event is when Cain killed his brother Abel because God showed favor to Abel over his Cain.  Therefore all forms of evil would not exist on Planet Earth.

What is a conspiracy theory you actually find believable?

What’s a conspiracy theory you actually find believable?

What is a conspiracy theory you actually find believable?  I want to inform everyone that God and Jesus Christ really exist 🙏 🙌.   It is true that God created the heaven and the earth within a six day period and the seventh day He rested.  There is nothing anything that could dispute this whatsoever.   It is true that before we all were formed inside of our mother’s womb, God knew us in advance, and it has been determined in advance how long we are going to live on planet Earth 🌏.   This is written in Jeremiah 1:5 and Psalm 139:16 inside of the Holy Bible in all versions of the Bible.  Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.   In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen 🙌 🙏 ❤️ 👏.  Please continue to pray for me because I am recovering from eye surgery 🙏.  God bless all of you worldwide.

How do you deal with uncertainty?

How do you deal with uncertainty?

How do you deal with uncertainty?  I deal with uncertainty by praying to God and Jesus Christ, and they will remove it for me.   The only thing that I need to do is cast my cares to Him, for He cares for me.   1st Peter 5:7 is a Bible verse that I always read as well as 2nd Timothy 1:7 which says that For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of love and of power and a sound mind.  This is exactly how I deal with uncertainty in my personal life right now.

What is a moment when you realized you were officially an adult?

What’s a moment when you realized you were officially an adult?

What is a moment when you realize you were officially an adult 🤔?  The moment when I officially realized when I became an adult was when I became old enough to vote in United States Elections as well as registered for the military draft back on Friday, June 24, 1983.  I just turned 18 years old, and I was enrolled in the Job Corp Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  During that time, I had been drinking 🍸 alcohol and smoking marijuana. My  mother decided to oust me from her house 🏠 simply because I refused to attend public schools in the Dayton Ohio Area.   I also rebelled against everyone who was an adult by deciding to hang around my friends and street gang members who were in the Dayton Ohio Area from 1983 through 1990.  One thing that my mother was proud 👏 of was when I had officially graduated from Paul Laurence Dunbar High School 🏫 🙌 👏 on Tuesday, June 10, 1986, at the Memorial Hall at 7:00 pm.   All of my family members and friends were very happy for me.  One year later I enrolled at Central State University in Wilberforce Ohio and I was officially an adult.  I was working full time and attending college full time as well.   Less than one year later I had enlisted in the United States Marine Corps and I was stationed in Parris Island South Carolina for bootcamp.  Bootcsmp was very rough to me.  I didn’t stay in the military very long.  I came back to Dayton Ohio and I reenrolled back to college and I had worked at the Skyline Chili Restaurant in Dayton Ohio for another short period of time.   I had also worked at the King Cole Restaurant located in Downtown Dayton Ohio for only one year.  Afterwards I was involved in a relatively with an older woman and she used me for less than a year until I had decided to receive drug and alcohol treatment at the Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center for three months.  Prior to that I had surgery to repair my left inguinal hernia on Friday May 4 1990.  I had to stay in the hospital because I couldn’t urinate.   This is because my Main Bowel had been severed.  At that time I was staying with my relatives until I went to treatment for drug and alcohol abuse.  I completed my treatment and on Friday September 1 1990 I left Dayton Ohio and moved north to Toledo Ohio where I lived there for almost six years.   I also graduated twice from the University of Toledo in 1993 and 1995 respectively.   I was working as a Youth Counselor at the Jerusalem Outreach Center from 1993 to 1996.  I used to live in the North and Western sides of Toledo Ohio until 1996.  I relocated back to the Dayton Ohio Area for one year.  Additionally I used to live in Charlotte North Carolina for twelve years from 1997 to 2010.  I used to work at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte for eight years.  Later on; I moved back to Dayton Ohio and I have been here since Thursday January 6 2010.  I had written two books 📚 and they are called Essays and My Grace is Sufficient for Me.   My book publisher is Authorhouse Publishing Company located in Downtown Bloomington Indiana.  I have been clean and sober since Wednesday May 2 2990.  I have been clean and sober for 36 years now.   I recently had eye surgery on Wednesday May 27 2026 and Wednesday August 12 2026.  Please continue to pray for me as I recover from my most recent eye surgery 🙏.   Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.   I also rededicated my life back to Jesus Christ as of last week 🙏 🙌.   I will admit that I was baptized more than several times from 1993 until February 15 2015.

If you had a time machine and could send just one message to your past self, what would it say?

If you had a time machine and could send just one message to your past self, what would it say?

If you had a time machine and could send just one message to your past self, what would it say?  God and Jesus Christ are real 🙏 🙌.   Jesus is coming back to govern the new planet Earth because the old planet earth will dissolve like fervent heat.  It is true that the old is gone and the new is coming soon.  God bless all of you worldwide 🌐 🙏 ❤️ ♥️ 🙌.   Amen and Amen 🙌 🙏 ❤️ 😊 👏 ☺️ 🙌 🙏 ❤️ 😊 👏 ☺️ 🙌 🙏 ❤️.  I would tell my old self to have faith in God and Jesus Christ and do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.   Therefore, I would tell my former self that heaven and he’ll are also real.  God bless you!

Which author would you like to have dinner with?  God and Jesus Christ are the only 2 authors that I will be glad to have dinner with all of the time.  I also would like to have dinner with the Apostle Paul and John, which are 2 of the authors  that I will be glad to have dinner with as well.  As far as contemporary authors are concerned, I would like to have dinner with Max Lucado and Dr. David Jeremiah.   These are the authors that I will be glad to have dinner with anytime.  

What is a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people?

What’s a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people?

What is a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people?  God and Jesus Christ are solely responsible for restoring my faith in people 🙏 🙌 ❤️.   In addition,  my friends in the Toledo, Ohio and Charlotte North Carolina are also responsible for helping me to restore my faith in people as well.   It is God and Jesus Christ who ultimately are doing for me more than I am doing for myself.
