Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

Yesterday, October 17, 2010 was the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk. I have been participating in this walk for the past 10+ plus years. I try to walk every year (with the exception of when Iwas away at school and couldn't get home) with my mom because her mother (my grandmother) died from breast cancer when she was  12. It is always a reflective time because I never got a chance to meet my grandmother and I've always imagined how things would be if this disease did not take her life. Well yesterday the three stooges (myself, my mom, and my cousin) participated in the walk in Brooklyn at Prospect Park.

Here are some photos of the walk yesterday The team-Mom -grey sweat shirt, Cousin … [Read More...]

Would you like to enjoy a life of abundance and significance?  If so, you must make choices that are pleasing to God. From the instant you wake up in the morning until the moment you nod off to sleep at night, you make lots of decisions: decisions about the things you do, decisions about the words you speak, and decisions about the thoughts you choose to think.  Today and every day, it's up to you (and only you) to make wise choices, choices that enhance your life and build a stronger relationship with the Creator.  After all, He deserves your … [Read More...]
