January - A.A.O.R.F. was birthed out my own
personal experiences.
I have witnessed how an individual's development is impacted
by lack, loss, and not having enough! Whenever
someone lends a helping hand, it increase our
chances of survival. I have learned that life
is not always about what you know. Building
and sustaining positive relationships is the
key to success. Our HOPE is like a curtain
rod. It will stay in place as long as it is
connected to some form of HELP. Even in the
midst of adversity, we will still have a
chance to HEAL. Positive relationships cause
us to believe that we still have a chance in
life. Therefore, our HOPE is rooted in love.
Love is like a good boxer: "proving that
it is better to give than to receive."
This is important because love ALWAYS wins!
