My 1st Blog: Celebrations!
My name is John and this is my very first blog, so any feedback after reading this would be very helpful. I joined WA back on August 1st and became a "Premium" member three days later because every part of my being was screaming that this is where I needed my online success to start! I have a tremendous amount of respect for all the people on here who truly want to be successful not only just for themselves but helping so many other to be successful also!
The reasons why I titled this blog as "Celebrations" is for a couple of reasons: The first reason being that today I am celebrating my moms birthday and the life that I had with her(she passed away four years ago July 27th) and as I go back and see snip-its of great memories it really brings a smile to my heart! You see I was adopted being an African American baby by an all Caucasian family that already had three natural children(and would have one more after me) which in 1968 was almost impossible making it challenging for all my family and all their friends and my entire community. But I remember my mom raising and teaching me the same as all of them...so it makes me smile when I think how she taught me how to walk, and talk, and learn my abc's and my 123's which really is where I got the foundation for the rest of my life! So I celebrate my moms birthday today and I thank her for everything she has every done with me and for me! Happy Birthday mom and thank you for everything! I Love You!
The second reason I am celebrating is because since I joined WA I feel like I have a new and additional family and the way that it relates to my other family and especially my mom is that I have people who care about my success and who are willing to teach me how to walk, how to talk, my abc's, and my 123's within this exciting new family(community) and within online marketing. It's such a great feeling to know that real people are taking time out of there lives to assist people they really don't know them more than having the common bond to be successful at achieving their goals and hopefully their dreams! So please if you read this blog give any feedback that will help me to be more successful in the future! Thank you all so much for all your help and I wish you all the most success!!!

Hi John. I am already following you and read this with great respect for you. Your mom has certainly done a great job and my heart goes out to you, and her. She had to have a great deal of love in her heart/soul to be willing to take on that challenge back then. THAT lesson is enough to show you that if it is in your heart, it can be done. I don't think you will ever forget that and I also think that you are going to do really great here. My best to you.

Thank you so much Dan that means a lot to me and yes I was very blessed and I would not trade my life for anything!
Hi John! What a beautiful tribute to your Mom. Although she wasn't your biological Mom, she chose you and loved you. That in itself makes her an incredible woman. She would be very proud of you! So carry on! Blessings, Sue
Congrats on your first blog and Happy Birthday to dear departed Mother. May she rest in peace knowing what a wonderful man she raised. :)
