    “We do not get to choose how we start out in life. We do not get to choose the day we are born or the family we are born into, what we are named at birth, what country we are born in, and we do not get to choose our ancestry. All these things are predetermined by a higher power. By the time you are old enough to start making decisions for yourself, a lot of things in your life are already in place. It’s important, therefore, that you focus on the future, the only thing that you can change.”

    “Most people write me off when they see me.
    They do not know my story.
    They say I am just an African.
    They judge me before they get to know me.
    What they do not know is
    The pride I have in the blood that runs through my veins;
    The pride I have in my rich culture and the history of my people;
    The pride I have in my strong family ties and the deep connection to my community;
    The pride I have in the African music, African art, and African dance;
    The pride I have in my name and the meaning behind it.
    Just as my name has meaning, I too will live my life with meaning.
    So you think I am nothing?
    Don’t worry about what I am now,
    For what I will be, I am gradually becoming.
    I will raise my head high wherever I go
    Because of my African pride,
    And nobody will take that away from me.”
