Life is a sport, an adventure. I can always find healthy competition, while knowing that I will never be the best and that's ok. I'll be striving to be better tomorrow than I am today...whatever that may look like and ALL for the glory of God.

In Honor of Rosa Parks
Today a very important woman in the American Civil Rights Movement has passed away. Rosa Parks was born February 4, 1913 and died October 24, 2005.
I wanted to honor Rosa on my blog today, because my friend Becca has married an amazing black man, Denis, and who knows if this would ever have happend had it not been for Rosa Parks. So now every February we get to appreciate Rosa and Becca (since she thinks she's Black), and all the African Americans who are amazing people and who have impacted America.
So thank you Rosa, for being an amazing woman, and not giving up your seat on that bus. You will be remembered every time I look at Becca, and have to go to the back of the bus.
