Doing good, but doing it greater...

Monday morning; it's usually associated with the start of the week (and at times, the week can be slow starting). However, January 31st (2022) is memorable given the forthcoming investment in Southern Gwinnett County. During the press conference held by Congresswoman Carolyn Bourdeax (GA-7), the Centerville OneStop Shop (located at 3025 Bethany Church Road in Snellville, GA), the news of the day is one full of excitement, especially as it relates to investing in the communit

PBR. For those who are 21 and older, it refers to a "blue ribbon" beverage enjoyed on game days or Saturdays. On Saturday, January 22nd (2022) at the Gas South District (6400 Sugarloaf Parkway in Duluth, GA), it's the first of a two-day experience via the Professional Bull Riding circuit (click HERE to visit their Linktree), the "toughest sport on dirt". After the pre-riding concert by Andy Velo, 40 of the circuit's top riders open up the competition. With the top 12 scorer

On Thursday, January 6th, Congressman Hank Johnson (GA-04) hosts a public policy roundtable. An interfaith themed series, the virtual roundtable discussion "Root Causes of the Insurrection: Securing Democracy for All" is part of the larger series of a national day of observances given the riots from the January 6, 2021 abhorrent-laden and ill-intention driven actions by an uncouth collective, including the person who is put in a position of leadership, but clearly is lackin

We all have a story. However, when it comes to some moments which are smooth as sandpaper, some shy away for sharing. However, J. Burroughs (click HERE to visit his Instagram) is not one of those people. In fact, his story of redemption not only helps others in a parallel experience, but empowers him (and others) to walk stronger in his gifts and talents. The Brooklyn native (a survivor of the Marcy Projects, as he grew up with a resident who is 2 years older than him, Shaw

Dedicated to the craft. Putting in work. These are phrases associated with people we see working hard, being diligent, and remaining focused.
