The Incredible Amazing Life of "T"

I am in my mid 20's now so I think its appropriate to talk about dating. I always get so nervous to breach the topic because I feel like no one will understand, but we live in a world with internet. This means that millions of people have access to this post. Its not about understanding anymore. The focus is exposure and education. I don't know what I am looking for out of this, but I do think that the content of this post is interesting. I just have a few questions that need answers. To start, What do people think about dating someone with a differing level of or limited ability? Next, What role does social media play in all of this? Then, for those who date online, how much disclosure is necessary at the onset? To follow, do people have a right to put disclosure on a need to know basis? Finally, if it matters to you, why does it matter? I really want to know what people think. I have some great things coming in the near future. Lets start the conversation. Do not fee...

I can't believe it has been over a year since I posted here. I am so so sorry. So many things have happened in the past year. I moved apartments, states, law schools, and got a puppy. It is official. Once I finish my last final next Friday I will be a 3L.  Coincidentally, I did not know if I would be saying this so soon after what happened a couple of months ago. My former law school the Charlotte Law School got into so much trouble with the government that I did not feel confident I could trust the school itself with my legal education,so I left this past December. The transition was difficult. Colleagues, friends, and classmates all torn apart in the blink of an eye. I continue to believe that I am blessed. I found a school that accepted me and everything I came with. Everything works out how it is supposed to because now I am confident that this school and its network will place me on the trajectory necessary for me to be the best advocate I can be. To back track, I got a...

Just viewed the Christmas Day service live online from my from my home church in GA and the message was... Don't be afraid of who you are, Embrace how God made you, and live without limits because like Rudolph the Red nose reindeer you may be teased and talked about, but then you are called to save the day doing something that only you can do, it its you that will go down in history. This message hit home with me because I am unique among those that know me. I have mild Cere bral Palsy, I use assistive technology to walk and get around,I AM BLACK, well traveled, a Latin honor graduate of the  ‪#‎ 1HBCU‬  Spelman College, A Teach for America Alum, a first Generation College student, and now I am a law student. I embrace all the aspects of who I am. I am God's child who is blessed and highly favored. There have been many people who do not think I should be pursuing the path that I am on. They are afraid that it is too much for me to handle, or that I won't ever make it to th...

As some of you may or may not know in April 2015 I was in a very serious car acciendent that has left my life in shambles. I have lost so many things that I worked hard to earn. For example, My brand new handicap modified truck, 5 pay checks and the chance to recieve summer optional pay. which is a lost of almost $10,000 that I was going to use to move, and  It is because I do not have a car that I do not have a way to secure a summer job to try and recover lost funds. My roommates have moved, so I have no transportation.  I have also lost my lawyer and insurance benefits because of the high front end cost of legal fees. I had a plan that was flushed down the toilet. I believe that there is God with a son named Jesus that died for my sins, and he promised to always care and protect me. I know that I will make it to law school. The only thing standing in my way is securing housing in Boston. Im selling mostly everything that I own but that wont be enough. I am raising money to ...

Hey all its been awhile since i've update, but there is lots to tell. Im in the process of creating a series of post to chronicle my summer 2014. Be back soon love, Love Ya!

Big blessings can come in very simple packages. Yesterday I had lunch with some amazing people. One of my friends spoke about his introduction to ministry. He mentioned a game he would play where you are asked to identify God's presence in seemingly meaningless stituations or objects. The game is simple: Rule #1 Ask yourself where do I see God in this? Many times as a young follower of Christ I find it difficult to judge whether my behavior aligns with God's Word. My friend today reminded me that our God is omnipresent. In order to get the right answers you have to ask the right question. The right questions are not who, what, when, where, how, why. The one and only question that need to be asked for clarification is where do I see God in this? I was used as an example how to play the game. He pointed to a cup in front of me, but continued  explain the situation at hand. At that time I thought to myself that this silly game. But as I continued to contemplate his speech with ...

     The title of this post has perplexed me for some time now. Never in a million years did I think it took strength to make choices. All I thought it took was wise council and risk analysis, but I am learning that while those two things are important when making choices the most important part of the choice making process is  having the strength to live with the choices you make.       I believe that everyone is put on this earth for a reason and that no matter what one does you will end up where you were always supposed to be. You where destined to be there and no one else. God writes amazing stories for our lives(hence the name of my blog).  For many years I struggled with learning how to navigate this world as a triple minority. In high school I thought I found the answer, and that answer was be proactive not reactive. While I truly believe that is the answer to most problems, I now realize that at that point in my life I was to immatu...
