What God shares with believers are not to be told to others. Many prayer groups are nothing more than spiritual gossip sessions.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 26, 2017

Fight For Your Dream
This is one of the SADDEST stories ever told in Hollywood. His name is Sylvestar Stallone. One of the BIGGEST and Most famous American Movie superstars. Back in the day,Stallone was a
struggling actor in every definition. At some point,he got so broke that he stole his wife's jewellery and sold it. Things got so bad that he even ended up homeless. Yes,he slept at the New York bus station for 3 day...s. Unable to pay rent or afford food. His lowest point came when he tried to sell his dog at the liquor store to any
stranger. He didnt have money to feed the dog anymore. He sold it at $25 only. He says he walked away crying.
Two weeks later,he saw a boxing match between Mohammed Ali and Chuck Wepner and that match gave him the inspiration to write the script for the famous movie,ROCKY. He wrote the
script for 20 hours! He tried to sell it and got an offer for $125,000 for the script. But he had just ONE REQUEST. He wanted to STAR in
the movie. He wanted to be the MAIN ACTOR. Rocky himself. But the studio said NO. They wanted a REAL STAR.
They said he "Looked funny and talked funny". He left with his script. Afew weeks later,the studio offered him $250,000 for the script. He refused. They even offered $350,000. He still refused. They wanted his movie. But NOT him. He said NO. He had to be
IN THAT MOVIE.
After a while,the studio agreed,gave him $35,000 for the script and let him star in it! The rest is history! The movie won Best Picture,Best Directing and Best Film Editing at the prestigious
Oscar Awards. He was even nominated for BEST ACTOR! The Movie ROCKY was even inducted into the American National Film Registry as one of the greatest movies ever!
And do You know the first thing he bought with the $35,000? THE DOG HE SOLD. Yes,Stallone LOVED HIS DOG SO MUCH that he stood at the liquor store for 3 days waiting for the man he sold
his dog to. And on the 3rd day,he saw the man coming with the dog. Stallone explained why he sold the dog and begged for the dog back. The man refused. Stallone offered him $100. The
man refused. He offered him $500. And the guy refused. Yes,he refused even $1000. And,Believe it or Not,Stallone had to pay $15,000 for the same,same dog he sold at $25 only! And he
finally got his dog back!
And today,the same Stallone who slept in the streets and sold his dog JUST BECAUSE he couldnt even feed it anymore,is one of the GREATEST Movie Stars who ever walked the Earth!
Being broke is BAD. Really BAD. Have You ever had a dream? A wonderful dream? But You are too broke to implement it? Too tiny to do it? Too small to accomplish it? Damn! I've been there too many times!
Life is tough. Opportunities will pass you by,just because you are a
NOBODY. People will want your products but NOT YOU. Its a tough
world. If you aint already famous,or rich or "connected",You will find it rough.
Doors will be shut on You. People will steal your glory and crash your hopes.You will push and push. And yet NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.
And then your hopes will be crashed.You will be broke. Damn broke. You will do odd jobs for survival. You will be unable to feed yourself. And Yes,you may end up sleeping in the streets.
It happens. Yes,it does.
BUT NEVER LET THEM CRUSH THAT DREAM. Whatever happens to
You,Keep Dreaming. Even when they crush your hopes,Keep Dreaming. Even when they turn you away,Keep Dreaming.
Even when they shut you down,Keep Dreaming.
NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF EXCEPT YOURSELF! People will judge You by HOW you look. And by WHAT You have.
But please,Fight on! Fight for Your place in history. Fight for your glory. NEVER EVER GIVE UP!
Even if it means selling all your clothes and sleeping with the dogs,ITS OKAY! But AS LONG AS YOU ARE STILL ALIVE,Your STORY IS NOT OVER. TRUST ME.
Keep Up the Fight. Keep your dreams and hope alive.

What's That You Said?
I thank God everyday for making me strong enough to stand alone, and NOT go along to get along. I have my own mind, and not afraid to use it. If people agree, good. If not, that's fine too.
Everyone talks a good game about being able to stand up for their beliefs, but when they're criticized for their views, they switch up.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 25, 2017

What Have You Done For Me?
I'll be grateful to anyone who can answer this question. Last time I checked, Presidents have to do what's best for the nation, not one group. Let's say President Trump catered to blacks; blacks would be satisfied, but other groups would be upset because Trump's not doing for them. It's not feasible for any president to cater to one group because other groups are going to feel slighted. Besides, maybe people need to do for self instead of depending on others to do for them.
Why do some blacks think a president is required to do for them? Presidents have to do what's best for the country, not a specific group.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 23, 2017

Real Talk Monday: Sick of This Liberal Thinking
Liberalism is a mental disorder that needs to be done away with, PERIOD.
ANY woman who sees nothing wrong with a man wearing a romper does NOT have the right to complain about not finding a real man.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 22, 2017

You're Savage: Oh Really?
Guess they're not savages after all.
Ghetto folks claim to be savages letting loose with the chopper on unarmed folks, but with other dudes shooting back, they turn scared.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 20, 2017

(Un)conditional Love
So you think you can love unconditionally?
Love is unconditional until the conditions change.— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) May 19, 2017
