Love Of Money

 

            
             Take a journey with me if you will, back to a time in your life when you dreamed of being something great. Back to a time when you envisioned yourself becoming an astronaut, firefighter, doctor, teacher, or even a musician. I remember having the same kind of dreams as a child and would like to share some of those with you.
             However, I would like to begin by reading a quote that embodies the essences of my being. It comes from the New Living Translation of the bible; which is found in Galatians 6:9 "So don't get tired of doing what is good, don't get discouraged and give, for we will reap a harvest of blessings at the appropriate time."" I would like to allude to the fact that perseverance and my faith in GOD has been the key driving forces that have enabled me to obtain some of my lifelong dreams. .
             When I was a young girl, I never missed a homecoming football game. I was always fascinated by the halftime ceremony; which involved the crowning of the homecoming queen. This was the moment I eagerly anticipated every year and would secretly envision myself parading around that football field with that crown on one day. However, I would later discover that many cities, towns, communities, and even countries have a set of road maps or master designs that all lead in one specific direction. Little did I know, that I would travel along my own contrasting road map that was going to lead me down a path of accomplishing some of my childhood dreams. .
             Ironically, I not only fulfilled my childhood dream of becoming homecoming queen; coincidentally, I also became the first African-American homecoming queen ever to be crowned in the little city of Sherman, Texas. Beyond this hue uric event, I would embark on a journey that would lead me to a major personal milestone in my life; which was becoming the first member of my immediate family to attend college.
             However, this journey would not go as smoothly as I envisioned due to the fact that I would be faced with the obstacle of becoming pregnant with my first daughter, Ladaziye.
