Well it was quite the day. Plenty of our MLK Family & Friends Program participants are starting to buy into the program, even as we are still in the process of tweaking it, as well as learning things on the fly. The whole point of the actual MLK Humanity Project is to empower others to empower themselves. By being completely open and honest about my life, poor choices and all, I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to deal with our friends on a one on one basis, should they so choose to want to speak on their situation. It’s a very sobering reality to be in a position in my life to be the one to offer counsel to those that I seek it from someone who’s been there and done that. In this case with that someone being myself! Case in point, today we ran across our friend Jerry, and for the first time, he told us he was ready to get help. Now I’m gonna leave it at that, because he and I have agreed to meet up tomorrow to determine what’s the best course of action. I will most certainly keep y’all posted on what we decide, because we will certainly be turning to y’all for advice, and hopefully support!! Jerry is one of 2 such meetings I’m having tomorrow, and that’s the beautiful thing about this project, because it allows us to form true relationships with people who might otherwise not open up to strangers per say. To be very honest, I’m thrilled to know that after knowing of Jerry for over 16 months, we are finally getting to know Jerry, and that’s saying a lot. (If you know Jerry! 🤗) This will hopefully lead to great things for Jerry, as well as our friend Eric, as they turn the page in their books of life, to new and more promising chapters!! ❤️🤞🏾 Other than amazing day of fellowship and community outreach, we just we really met a lot of pets today!! Go figure! Our love is unconditional and all encompassing. We love life, and that includes our four legged friends!! (Even spiders!!🥺8 legs!🥺🙄) A life is a life, and all life has value!! Too much maybe, but it’s how I roll!! ✊🏾✌🏾&❤️So with that, we are off to do the grunt work, shopping, and we will see y’all next week in the streets of Vallejo!! So please enjoy the rest of your weekend! Tell the ones you love that you love them, before you can’t!! Always remember to be kind to others! Peace, and May God continue to Bless Us All!! ✌🏾🙏🏾 P.S. To date the MLK Humanity Project has served 10,510 sack lunches, homemade meals, hot and cold cereal breakfasts, and family packages throughout the Vallejo area. It is our profound commitment to continue to help those who want to help themselves, and those who no longer can!! ❤️🖤💚💛 P.S.S. We want to thank the many people who do what they do to support us. From the donors to the volunteers!! It’s all for naught without the support that you provide us. We certainly appreciate all of kind words as well. However, we like to say that liking us is lovely, but sharing is caring!! So please help us spread the word. If you want to help and are unable to donate, then donate your good karma and share our message with those who you feel are likeminded individuals!l Please follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter as well!! Thank you!!!👍🏾 “SOMETIMES GOD BLESSES OTHERS THROUGH US!!”🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 #ONELOVE❤️✊🏾🖤✊🏼💚✊🏻💛 424EVR
