“It is my express wish that in awarding the prizes no consideration be given to the nationality of the candidates, but that the most worthy shall receive the prize, whether he be Scandinavian or not.” – Alfred Nobel
It’s 12 : 14 PM on day 1550 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, read Isaiah 35, publish my Disability of the Day feature, promote my Educate Generations campaign– on $1 090 – brush my teeth, feed myself a peanut butter sandwich and a banana for breakfast and continue promoting my campaign – still on $1090 but things could be worse I could still be on $0 and besides I’m praying about it I know God is busy I’m willing to wait because I know he’ll answer my prayers eventually probably through someone I would least expect 🙂
