The Best Decision I Made Was Marrying My Wife.

Ever wonder how different your life would be if one thing never happened?

We all have one moment that if it were different our lives would have changed significantly. Maybe we all have one the night we where conceived and just don't realize or know the miracle that was happening right from the start with that moment.

My one thing that happened was the summer when I was 17. It was up at Camp Sussex where I worked. I saw these girls walking down the hill and one had a black and white striped shirt on with washed out jean shorts. I immediately said to myself, “This is gonna be a problem.”

She was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. So, I asked her on a date during her next day off. No, it wasn’t easy to make that ask.

That afternoon after a long morning (those days I worked in the kitchen at 7am in 90 degree heat), I was going to meet her at a local club and take her to dinner. 

I was so tired after the long day in the kitchen that I was in my room and going to blow the whole thing off. I didn't think it was gonna work. Then I heard the phone ring. It was my mentor, Head Chef Alzie Jackson saying, “Mara’s on the other line and wants to know where you are and if you’re meeting her.” 

Of course,  I was on my way. Alzie told me, “Get your ass over there now and pick up a bottle of wine on the way for later”

You know some times you tell yourself a story and it just isn’t true. You count yourself out before the game even starts.

Thank god for Alzie pushing me and reminding me that my story was bull sh*t. If it wasn't for that moment, well I probably would not be happily married to Mara for 28 plus years.

The best decision I ever made was marrying my wife. Also, it was probably the last decision I ever made.

  • 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
