The mediocre are the top of the bottom, or the best of the worst, or the bottomof the top, or the worst of the best. Lou Holtz<br>There once was a young boy who wanted more than anything in the world to be a great basketball player. He dreamed of this, day and night. He worked at it as hard as any human being worked at anything, trying to develop skills and coordination. He practiced long and hard trying to improve each day. It was a very sad and disappointing day when his coach told him he didn't make the team. The next year, he tried again, but still didn't make the team. He went home to his room and cried his eyes out. He had been rejected twice and was very discouraged and upset, but he would not quit. He said his experience of having been cut taught him how to handle rejection in his adult years. He worked harder than ever to improve his skills and become a better athlete. With much perseverance, hard work and sacrifice he finally reached his goal of becomin a great basketball player. In fact, this man by the name of Michael Jordan, became the greatest basketball player to ever play the game. <br>Many times the road to becoming the best or a champion is rrstanding that everyone is created equal in regards to race, color or creed. However, we must also recognize two things. First, we still have a long way to go and second, all people, regardless of race, color or creed must strive to do the best of their ability t live up to the freedoms and understandings that have been gained. <br>Two great men that have done just that are Anthony Lucas from Arkansas and Darwin Walker from Tennessee. Martin Luther King, Jr. should be siling with great joy because of the spirit and accomplishments of Anthony and Darwin. This is what he fought and died for. <br>Read the Creed and then read Anthony s and Darwin s story. Come away inspired. Let s all become better. <br> - Dr. Greg Shepard<br><br><br>_______________________<br><br><br>I, the African American; man, woman, son, daughter, great-gradchild of slaves, descendant of Africa and child of God no longer have to search to find my place in this world.<br><br>I, the African American, have a responsibility to my forefathers whose struggle I must continue to ward off hatred and bigotry.<br><br>I, the African American, descendant of Ishmael and Abraham, have a responsibility to help my brothers and sisters if they fall by the wayside.<br><br>I, the African American, of dark complexion, have a responsibility to keeping my dark beautiful armor shined with Christ-like luster in my daily walk.<br<br>I, the African American, whose ancestors were great warriors, must become a great warrior against such things as drugs and gang violence.<br><br>I, the African American, from a race which was so powerful as to cause a nation to ch1:~zaeㄌH"5Æ+9ٕz`rdI b×N̘f\b7ɚ0GJ‹1'wl/Ԯu=BD Ԭ x &RH;3>+maas,Or8y'iqHwBa+Z]ddjm`JjdKiʡZ@y'Y&n_65Pf`^IEA^=pDsZ^wj: HL N 1@$M7SfTa=G'Bӥ@$VqJ{b,lmaB55 u,Uy4M|;#o͝-J*.ƜT cJՂ]\=NX.=OSG4z١|VG?S*qK68M{>IcqxN6k`xmVew?f*e_UkW_K`X_}f~Ÿs876N?iw&l6G77=_v{SE>T_!ٱJ}`}Vz^iM0W%›uJ{g0̈́|+itsg3͒_+#z}/9:~Cou:uxS? bލ[rj}]OC~թO^gR_ճC뚴nz춟]_w~p^1;ؗ ?3<:? iw0b}8qt̛F6֚3irzK[_ͥuAHs~^ӈ%/K'Tee#AgbTP3cXYrnb9]\q+Z5lǑQ_)#* | ґeaSea)u?l:6G%qЙz/<> 5KδWVuOS.}e Jl}2qu7p.?~Gɱ\2ƛu3]WcB>QucZ-Zb$R`&(P&#@
