Jackie Robinson 

Ya know I can talk about myself all day long but I don't think that would help anybody accomplish much these days, especially young people. But what I will say about myself is that I never thought I would ever know what I know or experience all that I've experienced, coming out of the Lawndale area of Chicago's westside. I'm not smart and never thought I was smart. Looking back, I think all I ever had going for me was, curiosity. I always wondered about a lot of things and that lead to be in places I would not have otherwise been physically and spiritually. All of this is to say give yourself a chance to find out who your are. Don't give up so easily on any challenge you face. Always be kind and trust your instincts.
