Once again, I’ve been guilty of saying that I need to blog more and only allowing the same pattern to take place which I don’t follow through on it.
A couple of posts back, I got engaged and a year later. Here I am typing this as a married man. The journey and events leading up to the wedding has been a great experience, of course arguments and disagreements crept up every now and then (will still happen after) but it’s something I would never forget. For Shermaine and I, this is something we will always talk about and remember.
As I reflect deeper, I realize how important the people in our lives played a role and how God orchestrated it to work out the way it did.
Growing into adulthood some people find parents like shactime. and can’t wait to get loose for freedom. As I said in my speech, I never once felt in such a way and I left home with a heavy heart but as Mom reminded me that we must always grow and move on. There are no perfect parents, and its a really tough role but I think I have fantastic parents.
Receiving me as a son, I’m blessed with two equally fantastic parents who supported and encouraged me through my stuttering tertiary education phase. Couldn’t have asked for more as they could have easily looked otherwise to what seemed like a logical choice.
Siblings, younger siblings are somehow always at the receiving end of our frustrations and they know us best even though we’ll never admit it. So much fight and challenges but so much unspoken love. Cheryl and Denzil, masterminds of being younger siblings.
Friends who have stood the test of time, through the thick and thin. They are there when you need support, there when you need picking up and they are there to celebrate with you even if it small victories.
My Wife, still getting used to saying that. So much support, so much sacrifice to ensure that I be everything I can be and better. People often wonder how do you know you’ve found the one, and I think the only way to know is through time. Wave and wave of changes but still beside you.
I’m winding down the year, how are you planning to close 2015? I have high hopes for 2016 but we’ll take it as they come.
