Memory
A picture that comes to mind is not a professional one. It is a picture of my great grandfather's diploma. He grew up in the early 1900s in Philadelphia. It was a very racially combative time and he faced obstacles everyday. He graduated from a university for Blacks in the 1940s. That is a huge feat that many Blacks because few had access to higher education and his diploma is now a motivational relic for me.
Memory is powerful. It can shape who you are and effect your life's direction.
