Awesome. You tell 'em, Bess!
Ahh - yes. I think thats what makes us stronger - the CHALLENGE of those who doubt us (as a people, as a race, as a gender, as a nation, as a city, etc.).
You hit the nail on the head with this one Stephen. It needs to bless the front of a t-shirt.
(Hello Mrs. Bess! ::::Waves::::)
Kiss your wife for me today - its been a while. :-)
MJW-
Thank you and hello! :)

Thank you sis. The poem was longer, but I condensed it to what you see here. I'm happy that I got my point across. Peace~
By the way, I kissed the wife and she received your msg. :)
Very touching Stephen! I love it, and so true!
Thank you Faith. I hope all is well in your part of the country.
I really liked this. It highlights how you need to be challenged for growth and excellence. You won't aspire for what isn't a challenge as there is nothing to aspire to!
NML-
So true. You said it well. I hope that you don't mind the change of photo. I put my own photo there. It seems to speak to the poem.
Alex-
This photo is for you. :)

That's how we should all live our lives.

This poem, well, I'd like to paint it words on the walls of my niece's and nephew's rooms. It is so inspiring.
Beautiful. Thank you, bro. Nice.

Hello! I need to visit your blog. I would be honored if you mentioned my poem to your class. You're too kind. The thought of being included with Langston makes me feel all warm inside. :) Peace~
Powerful poetry written in few words. This one is potent. Loving it!!
