I pray to be used in service to a greater purpose higher than my own

One of my theories about life is that we become what we believe.

One if the hardest things in life to learn are which bridges to cross and which bridges to burn.

Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it.

Let excellence be your brand... When you are excellent, you become unforgettable.

What I know for sure is that behind every catastrophe, there are great lessons to be learned. Among the many that we as a country need to get is that as long as we play the "us and them" game, we don't evolve as people, as a nation, as a planet.

There are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die.
