Reflections As I reflect on my journey to the Olympia this year, I cannot contain my emotions. The journey this time has been the most challenging emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. After my aunts passing last year weeks after the Olympia, it was my tipping point. Every sense of virtue left me. I had given my all to be my best as a competitor, at work, in school, and to those that love and supported me. Id given more than I thought I ever had, and I was exhausted. Even though we are instructed not to grow weary, traveling this road alone and clinging only to my faith, I knew I didnt have enough strength within myself to maintain the pace much longer. So much has happened to attempt to distract and discourage me throughout the year, most of which I choose not to share. And truth be told, it almost worked. At one point I wasnt so sure I would stand shoulder walking this journey alone again. But when there is purpose in your heart, your purpose strengthens your heart, orders your steps, and graces you to complete the race. Perhaps if you were me, you would have done things differently. Maybe so. But make no mistake. I have full confidence that I am right where I am supposed to be. I am thankful for each day that Im given, both the easy and the hard ones. I have fought the good fight. I finished the race. And thank God Im here. Thank God! Im here!......Next stop.....Vegas!!!!!
