So this right here is going to have some tears running down my face as a I write this.
I was just telling Jake, this whole thing as much as we have spread so much love & hope into our community, doing all this stuff for the kids has healed my inner boy.
From a kid who had his childhood ripped away, from family heart breaks & let downs & losing so much as a child. To being that boy in school who was known as the boy who is in the Children & Youth system, to being embarrassed to go to school because of the things kids would say about my parents. A boy who didn’t have a home to go to after school, a boy who was only able to talk to his mom & dad over a phone call, a boy who was separated from his family, a boy who was out of hope, a boy who cried every night just wanting his mommy and daddy to be okay, a boy who just wanted to protect his brother & sister.
To now a 27 year old boy who gives his everything to the kids, who has become someone they can count on & look up to. I’d give everything to be a kid again, but I’ll never get my childhood back so it was time for me to make sure other kids get a childhood that they could look back on & remember.
Every child I come in contact with, every story is different but every smile & every hug heals the wounds in my heart from my childhood.
To the parents who show their kids my videos & to the kids that I have met along this journey, thank you for helping me heal parts of my heart that have been covered up for a long time. I can’t thank you enough for all the love🩵
