A good brother and my idol
Keith was a good brother and my idol, but due to his “profession”, the Most High never allowed us to develop the closer connection I so desperately wanted. Eventually that lifestyle took his life. Yes we all will reap what we sow—but it hurts when it’s your bro. The personalized plate on one of my brother’s drag-racing cars had the inscription “If It’s God’s Will, I Will.” I remember one day asking him, “Why do you have that plate on your car when it seems like God’s will doesn’t matter?” Almost repentantly, he answered, “All I can do is try.” Rest in peace, my dear brother. Rest in peace.

Read MoreNever Forget Where Yah Has Brought You From
It’s deep how life comes full circle at times. I met this brother Sierra in 1991 when I was trying to get in shape. Little did I know that the Most High crossed our paths so that I could build my spiritual “muscles.” Sierra was not only a trainer at a national chain gym but a man of God—and later I discovered he was married to my good friend from high school, Youlanda. Sierra was a strong influence in my life and we became close friends.
