The date was set. After meeting and greeting with my new Angel Sisters at our local mall I was given the date of October 15 and the place was Belle Isle. I was excited to be a part of a fan club, this fan club. I had never joined a fan club before and didn’t expect much maybe an autographed picture at the most but I got so much more. This is something that I was not used to. Being from the hood in Detroit, MI I was never exposed to giving back and never knew that events or real people that did such things existed. I was excited as I explained the mission to my kids, they asked me how I was supposed to be walking and my disability (MS) wouldn’t allow me to walk the entire 5 miles. But I was determined to at least attempt to walk far as I could. I was brimming with excitement about the upcoming mission. So October 15th came it was cold, dark and rainy but I didn’t let that stop me from going to do what I set in my heart to do. Since we had to meet at 7 am I left my house at 5 am. It would take a little time and 2 buses to get there. As I arrived at our designated place to meet I called my Angel Sister Narquita to make sure I was in the right place because I didn’t see anybody. I had so many emotions in me I didn’t know what to do. “We are all here just come around the corner” she replied. I walked around the corner not knowing what to expect and saw so many supporters of the Breast Cancer. I saw so many Treys Angels in attendance I was excited. We boarded the bus, got to Belle Isle and registered. When the walk started we took off with a vengeance. There was so much love in the air, a lot of togetherness from everywhere. I spoke with Angels that I had met on Twitter in the weeks that led up to the mission. As we walked and talked I enjoyed the conversations that I was having with different people. It was surreal feeling of accomplishment that was unexplainable. I met Connie as I was walking and realized that she was the one that I had been bonding with on Twitter recently. I walked 3 miles that day hadn’t walked that far in years and I was proud of what I accomplished. Afterwards we went to breakfast and bonded more. When we left the restaurant everyone hugged and promised to see everyone at the next mission. It seemed like a dream to me for something like this to happen but it gave me hope for the future. Now I look forward to doing missions and giving back now more than ever. This isn't a fan club this my family.
Funny truths
Irrelevant people simply get ignored. " BobbyBasqui" This was a tweet that I read once that made so much since to me. People always do a lot of huffing and puffing to gain notice but what is the point in even paying attention to those people who act a fool for people to pay attention to the bullshit that they do? If you don't mean that much to me? Why be bothered? I have tons of people that I know that act up or trip simply to get recognition. That shit bothers me. I'm wondering? Is that the only was you can get people to notice your non existent ass? Let that shit go. Nobody care, nobody wants to hear any bullshit. Go on with your life. Because I'm going on with mine. FOH
