Legacy

I am truly blessed to be a part of such a tremendous legacy. It's common, especially in the "black" community, to hear about many broken homes and sibling rivalries that leave cousins unfamiliar and turn family reunions into family feuds.

I, however, am very fortunate. I have grown up watching brothers and sisters who stick together no matter what. My grandparents instilled in them strong and vital values of keeping God first and family second. My aunts and uncles' marriages have stood the test of time. They have truly honored the vows made within holy matrimony. They have loved their children and taken care of them, trained them in the right ways to live, the best ways to live.

While there are many families who waste time fighting and growing bitter and resentful, my family spends ample amounts of time loving and laughing. I'm blessed to carry on the tradition.
