A Star Is Born

Shine Your Light And Illuminate The World

A Star Is Born
Relay For Life WPEC

We all have the potential to be great and to shine our light bright to illuminate the world. We are all stars in our own right however so many do not allow for their star to be born. So many people listen to the doubters, the haters, the naysayers and their own negative self-talk that they hold them self back from the greatness that is their birthright. To combat this I recommend that you remind yourself daily that you are a star. I have this ritual where I say that I am the best there is, the best there was, and the best there will be as I look into the mirror reminding me that I have this greatness to unleash on the world. I take time to reflect on where I have been and all my accomplishments so that I can see where I have been so I can see where I am at and look at where I am going. You were born to be a shining star so do not let anyone take that away from you not even yourself. Now is the time for you to tap into your inner divinity and use your talents for good. The day you understand that you are a divine child of GOD and GOD wants you to prosper is the day you begin to manifest the life you desire.

When you begin to understand that the world is your stage and you are a star you will begin to see many signs that will assist you in moving forward toward your dreams. I remember going to interview Coach Lamont Carr of The Palm Beach Imperials and upon arrival finding a microphone on the scorer's table. It turned out it was live so in my best announcer voice, I said "Welcome to FAU for Today's Scrimmage between The Imperials Blue Team and The Imperials White Team. After I did the interview with Coach Carr and after the interview he asked if I could stay and announce the scrimmage. I said yes. At the end of the scrimmage coach Carr invited me to announce The Palm Beach Imperials Season Opener. I did the season opener and a woman from The Palm Beach Punishers of The Independent Women's Football League approached me to do their games I said yes. A star was born.

Since becoming a paid public address announcer and realizing that I have the talent to bring games to life I have been chasing my dream of one day doing professional games for The NFL or The NBA as football and basketball are two of my favorite sports. In looking for opportunities I have reached out to many teams and have been hired to do several games. Recently I was announcing The Super Bowl Games for The Pop Warner Gold Coast Football Program when I was heard by The Assistant Athletic Director and Head Coach for Cardinal Gibbons High School and he offered me the job as PA Announcer for the 2017 Football Season. I accepted and have done the Red-White Scrimmage and The Spring Game. I share this with you to encourage you to continually put yourself out there for someone is waiting to see your star shine bright to illuminate the world.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
