In Retrospect...



The older I get the more I realize what is important in life... I think about growing up and how important it was to have a stable home. I think about how fortunate I was to have a father that was there for me, regardless of what I had going on... School recitals, award ceremonies, basketball games, etc. He was always there for me. Always... He never let me down... Or made me feel less important...I'm fortunate to have a mother that made sure every birthday was special. Even when dead broke she made sure that my stomach was full. When I was hurt, she did her best to comfort me, and tell me everything will be ok. I guess I wasn't able to really appreciate what they done till I had kids of my own... I look at my daughters and think... The most precious gift I could give them.... is just being there. I see people wasting their life away, chasing money or chasing a dream that made them so delusional that they made themselves believe that this "grind"  is for their kids... When all their kids really want is for them not to be second place to something that may or may not pan out. Maybe that is the reason why I haven't been so quick to jump back into business. I don't know... I may never become rich.... I may never become wealthy... But one thing I will make sure of, is that I will always be there... Just like my parents were for me... Because at the end of the day... What is more important? What will be your kids fondest memory of you?

When life gets real...Who do you have in your corner?

As men, we try to be so strong and do things all on our own.

And asking for help is sometimes viewed as a weakness, but we should actually look at it as a strength.

Having people in your corner should always be seen as a asset, and I am fortunate to have people that I can turn to when I just need a morale booster.

It doesn't take much either. A quick phone call or text (like you see above) just to let you know that they are there for you could do a world of wonders.

These people I call family...Blood related or not...These people are the ones I know have my best interest at heart.

Keep the people you love close and the people that love you even closer. Life is too short to not recognize this.

Not meant to be a long blog...Just sharing my thoughts with the world...
