Celebrating Juneteenth #Juneteenth

Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army General Gordon Granger on June 19, 1865, proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas.

To all celebrating today may this always be a day of remembering and reflection on the freedom to live life and full of opportunities to make the world a better place.

Happy Father’s Day

To all the dads out there Happy Father’s Day. Being a father means a lot of different things these days. Some moms play the role of dads, and some fill the role of dad through adoption, marriage, and so many other ways. Enjoy this day good people.

It’s Father’s Day Tomorrow, I Miss You Dad

It’s Father’s Day tomorrow and I miss this man every single day of my life. To be honest it sucks he is not here. The saying he’s in a better place is bull. The best place he could be is with his family enjoying life with us. I am not angry at him for not being here but I am angry that we didn’t get more time with him. You never get over the loss. Ever. Dad, I love you, and thank you for being my dad. I do wish we could have dinner together tomorrow around the family table. I miss those times.
