There is one thing that comes before my children.

If you would have asked me 2 weeks ago if there was anything that came first in my life and what was it? I would have told you my children hands down no matter what. But then I realized, you can’t put your children first, you can’t be a good parent, you can’t be responsible, you can’t do anything if you can’t hold yourself accountable. If you can’t hold yourself accountable how are you going to do anything else? Think about that. I’m constantly talking and preaching to people within my life and even people I’ve just met that say they are having a hard time, telling them, I am always honest I’m not afraid to tell the truth and admit when I’m wrong or when I mess up. I also do not pretend like I know something if I do not, if I don’t know I tell you I don’t know. It’s all about being accountable and holding yourself accountable.

I’m 35 years old and no I’ve never been a drug addict or anything crazy like that, I smoked a lot of weed when I was younger like a lot younger before kids, I used to drink lots of alcohol, and I even got mixed up in a couple other drugs here and there throughout High School. That being said though I moved out of home when I was 15 years old and I’ve been on my own ever since. I’ve always been able to catch myself and realize I am better than this and I’ll never be better than this if I don’t hold myself accountable right here right now and walk away.
