I learned that patience is something you must have because in 1997 I didn’t have the patience to stay in school and finish study. I was so in a rush to skip class and play with my friends that I let my impatience get the better of me, and I let my high school diploma fly by.
I lost my father to a heart attack in 1988. Two years later I lost my mother from a stroke. I wish now that I had taken the time to show them the love they showed me. The biggest thing I noticed was that I hadn’t really paid attention to my life and I didn’t realize how important the people were in my life.
