Your Life inspired me to write

One of the most beautiful things to experience in life, for me it’s watching people living out their greatness. People do Great things every day, some go noticed others will never be known about. We often only put the awesomely great on pedestals and forget about the little done that makes a huge difference.

I want to thank you who have done little but, have made a huge impact.

Parents, there are great sacrifices you have made for your children that many times have gone unnoticed; even the absent and abusive played a part in bringing us into this Earth.

Tellers we never say hi to them and usually don’t bother to look at their name tag, because we just there to get our groceries and off we go.

Teachers not our favourite people in high school but, they are people we never seem to ever forget.

Security Guards you are constantly taken for granted and only noticed when needed. 

Law Enforces you put your lives at risk for others.

Pastors you work with difficult people yet still give of yourself.

Farmers every single thing we put in our mouths is because of you.

Medical Personnel you save lives for a living.

You there is so much that you do and think it’s mundane, it‘s not.

Thank You

You inspire me

I use words to speak
Words move me, yet other people
Use their hands
Their feet
Their hearts
Their minds
Whatever it is you use
It moves you
And when I see it move you


That moves me

The beginning of a Journey of Greatness

Dear Me


I have to hand the truth to you, I have noticed that you are under the impression that life revolves around an axis called you. How naive, but it’s to be expected from someone as young as you are. You have to stop expecting things to be handed to you; life does not work that way. It’s time you grow up and realise that you will have to fight, yet sometimes you may have to relinquish, not to admit defeat, but to let go so, you can grow. You are breaking out into new dimensions of life with much freedom... "freedom comes with responsibility"- Eleanor Roosevelt. Freedom is not freedom when you choose to attain it through disrespect, hate, dishonesty and immaturity.

Grow up and realise that relationships do matter which means people matter so treat them with love and respect.

Be honest with yourself, learn more, love more, forgive more and live life to the fullest.


Love, Me




This is my journey. Well, just a glimpse of it, I’m only 20. The reality is that everyone has their own journey to walk; you need to CHOOSE to walk it and you need to CHOOSE HOW to walk it.

“You have a voice, 
 speak out.”
