Not So Ordinary Monday

Today started like any other Monday.  No classes so I wake up a little later, watch Sports Center a couple of times, make some breakfast and watch some cartoons, shower, then head to campus to work on my capstone project. 

As I get in my car to leave my phone starts to vibrate, an unknown number is calling me.  I never answer unknown numbers but I had the feeling that I should take this call.

It was a good friend of mine that lives in Atlanta.  I hadn't spoken to him for a while, the last time I was in Atlanta we were supposed to link up but I could never get in contact with him.  Later I soon found out why.

To make a long story short my buddy is in prison for three years.  No he is not a criminal, he just made a mistake.  Sadly that mistake affected him and the life of another individual.  He is a good guy and I pray that he stay strong.

My message for the day is to always think before you do something.  Your actions can not only have a negative impact on yourself but on others.
