"There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept responsibility for changing them." - Denis Waitley
I was listening to an interview with Michelle Obama recently, and she said something that really hit home to me: "how do you become authentic? It starts with you've got to like me and like your own story!"
The truth is: everyone goes through shit. Most of us have many highs and lows. It's easy to talk through the highs, but talking through the lows is not always so easy.
We all have done stupid bonehead things. We've lost best friends because we did something stupid. We've almost killed ourselves doing stupid things as kids. We've all mistreated a boyfriend, girlfriend, spouse, or sibling. We've all been ungrateful from time to time for what we have for no reason outside of being self absorbed and selfish.
Most people have a story. The problem is, a lot of the time the story just isn't true. The hard part is owning up to the hard stuff that you either did, went through, or are going through, and recognizing the effects those things have had on you.
My friend Darren Prince said to me the other day "Whether you're in Yale or in jail; on Park Avenue or a park bench, it's never too late to change your mind about what you want to do with the rest of your life. More importantly, it's never too late to decide what type of person you want to be versus the person you are!"
Your story can have many chapters added if you choose. It's never too late to be the person you want to be, nor should you ever give up on the people you love in hopes that their story changes for the better!

Hello, my name is Rachel Frye and I want to give this testimony in respect of Dr. Odunga who made me win $2 Million Dollars in the Lottery by matching the 5 numbers for me. I am happy to be out of financial debt and be able to help my family in this seasonal period of fun and cheer. I contacted Dr. Odunga through Whats-App (+2348167159012) when I told him to help me win the Mega Millions and He told me that it would be spiritually checked if I will win the Lottery. When he informed me that I will not be able to win the Jackpot but I will win a huge amount in the lottery I was not completely sad but had great faith in him. I live in Freeland, Saginaw County, Michigan and I would say it was pretty hard to send him the money for the spell before he gave me the winning numbers to play. He sent me the numbers and I played. The next morning after the drawing, I matched the five white balls in the Aug. 4 drawing to win $1 million: 11-30-45-52-56. Thanks to the Megaplier X2, my prize was multiplied to $2 million. Thank You Dr Odunga for this wonderful experience with you. You too can contact Dr. Odunga at his Whats-App +2348167159012 or Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com
