Strength to Step Out


Today I made the decision that I will be driving across the country the beginning of next month. I don't know how long it will take, and honestly, I don't really care. No minute is guarantee so I have decided to make the most of my days. Instead of worrying about money, shelter, and time, I am going to embrace the certainty of God's love. I will be recording and taking pictures of my trip. Every night I will keep a log of my experience and the impact it will make on my spirit. I am presently putting together a regiment for my drive. Every morning and evening, I will do yoga for one hour and spend energy focusing on being a better man. I want to be a better man because for me to make the impact that I want to on this world I must continue to make changes. Over the past several months, I have improved leaps and bounds, so if I continue on this path I will definitely reach my goal. It had taken a life altering decision for me to realize that it's Game Time and I must show up to the game and win. Thank you to everyone who has been supportive of my travels and me. I know that I have made many poor decisions, and probably will make many more. However, the people who were there when I was at the bottom are the first to touch the top of this mountain we call life. Stay tune...broadcasting live from America's Highway.

Presidential Powers

Eric Holder

Eric Holder supported Mr Obama from early on in his presidential campaign
Barack Obama will appoint Eric Holder to the post of attorney-general, according to US media reports.

If confirmed, Mr Holder, 57, would be the first African-American to occupy the senior position.

He would also lead the administration's efforts to close the Guantanamo Bay prison camp, a move Mr Obama has singled out as a priority.

He served as deputy attorney-general under Bill Clinton and currently works for law firm Covington and Burling.
