my journey includes this person Debbie H who told me at sixteen,
"keep up the good work in boxing".
she even wrote it down and posted it out to my home address,
at that time l only ever been in the papers one time.
only boxed in the square ring one time.
only travelled outta town to compete in sport one time.
But and don't need to be counselled in sharing this (ha ha),
l don`t remember being encouraged very much as a teenager,
she. . . Debbie H, was the first person to take the time to put a short note of encourgement.
l went on to box 36 times even fighting for money (professional).
l became a youth worker qualifying at university.
l have travelled all over Europe and worked briefly in Dublin and Romania.
hope that others are valued more by my work,thru my words and actions others have a sense of their worth and uniqueness.
That mostly they grow in acceptance plusknowledge of God.
l have never forgotten those few words they came out of the blue. . . unexpected.
l never forgot Debbie H either.
