You gave me life and went through incredible lengths so I could have a fighting chance to make something of myself in this world and to be good.

It’s smiles and laughter now but you weathered incredible storms and kept the lights on when it was impossible, you managed to keep it sunny when there’s nothing but dark clouds and rain. You have been through it all for us!

A thousand thank yous will never been enough but you have an amazing place in my heart always.

May God bless you always ❤️

Do not underestimate age out here, there’s too much power in young people.

Years ago I said the main struggle young people will have is for their voices and opinions to be heard, because of their youth and inexperience many will discount their opinions. But the youth have incredible visions of the future and they need a little guidance, more resources and opportunities and the future will be a brighter one for everyone.

I see the fire in their eyes, the passion and the potential just trying to jump out and if that fire and potential is not nurtured through support systems, resources, opportunities then we will miss out on some amazing things in the future.

It’s in everyone’s interest for young people to do well and be in the right places to grow authentically, and for the youth remain strong willed, focused and driven towards making not only your life better but the community also and the world will be at your finger tips!
