There is a great deal of people holding on and following the lead of these so call leaders, rather it be rapper, clergyman or politician; when the necessary research haven't been done for finding out the origin of person/thing, there will be and eventual arrival at consequential destiny concerning one's choice for leadership.

False ID

It is sicking to me to see so much deception by the persons who I witness almost every day in some of these boxing/fitness gyms passing themselves off to be professional trainers, these people being trained by them have fallen for this are in no way headed to where they believe themselves to be going.

Fruits of a search.

In my search into the current path of society's glories this is what I found; I found women and young girls entrapped in devices and situations preconceived for their demise by way of their desires some good, some bad, but none deserving of the betrayal and horrors which attained rooting by way of these, I found men taking advantage and deceiving females through and by way of their (women) ability to express and give themselves over in the power of genuine affection, I found greed in-place of need, and I found Leaders feeding off of those they deceitfully betray, I found that, which is the only way to attack and destroy certain miseries and hardship, that being; educational facilities, Teachers, being under budgeted and numerous funding being generated for correctional personnel and structures which incarcerates, I found standing room crowds only at these so many young funerals, and numbers at the P T A'S which allows echos in the places of venue, I found parent/parents given over to games and non-productive conversations while kid/kids are allowed to roam any and every where UN-supervised, I found that there are many young and old that refuses to be held by or under any means of boundary (religion are government). Most sadly I found, many who have not the power are the understanding of what true Divine love really is.

Place of purpose!

I'm often asked why I do what I do when it comes to my work with the youth and young adults in boxing? My honest reason as for I know it to be, is purpose, reason stated; I really don't and haven in years the desire to be involved in professional boxing. Some of the kids I deal with are very talented in this field and have aspiration on becoming world champions, I willfully accept this journey as to guide them through what I know can be very trying and disheartening travel, because of the so many evils awaiting those who have no ideal of how money and fame can cause some to become. I haven any desire to be noted as this great boxing/famous coach, and my soul reason for my now involvement in the pro ranks are because the love I have ( that is as being a father figure) for a current and extremely talented female young boxer who has the desire of becoming a world champion. So as I said; I suppose I'm in my place of purpose.
