Europe for the first time to attend my first module and that was 18 years ago.
I have change from employee and now starting my own business,
learning to become consultant helping others along the way. I am trying
to get the sense of purpose of why am I here. It is still a learning
curve for me and yet I felt that I am going to the right place.
Financially I am not a the peak I have to admit but my
families are getting closer, I love my wife and two of my sons they are my
miracle. Today is my birthday and I am lucky enough to be surrounded by
people that I love.
There are so much thing I need to do and there are so many
things I need to learn. Dear God please point me to the right direction
please help me along the way please use me as your plan.
I thank God for having people that is helpful, resourceful,
creative, I pray that you will guide me all the way.
