Okay…so I am fortunate to have four brothers but today I will focus on two of them and the other two tomorrow. I am grateful for my brothers for many reasons but especially grateful for having William and Antonio in my life when the buses stopped running in the evening close to my final years of college. They were the two that would make sure I had a ride from my evening classes in Webster Groves back home to Wellston. They played a part in contributing to me doing what I needed to do to complete my studies, and I am extremely grateful they took turns doing that for me. It has been a little over 20 years since I have been out of college but I still remind myself of every person that contributed to me having what I have today as a result of God’s hand in every facet of my education. Never take for granted the contribution of family members that touched some area of your life that bears some fruit today.
We all hope to learn from our own experiences but there are those times when we also glean from others. These lessons offer great opportunities for stimulating our minds or emotions to a higher level: inspiration. Life itself is full of inspiration, whether it's from witnessing the simplicity or complexity in nature or finding valuable lessons in the things we encounter on a daily basis. Ultimately the hope is that inspiration evokes positive change in our lives on a daily basis.
