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. :-)
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!
when i get to brother Langston & his dream series with my students, can i add your poem to the mix? sometimes i feel lik ei write them and show them, they feel as though i am "right" and they are wrong. at any rate...i digs it!
PWife- 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~

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. :)
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. :)
Thank you. I love the expression.
David Hayes-
Yes, indeed and welcome.
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.
Thank you. It's good to post something. It's especially good if it inspires.
Alex-
:) I thought that you would like this pic more. Besides, it's my own. Peace~
