Still on our way to Corsica we had at least made it already on the ship. The colors of the open sea in sunshine (and with a polarization filter) just do not cease to amaze me. Especially when mixed with some vivid orange.

There was a time in my life when I thought the world revolved around me. You couldn’t tell me nothing. I didn’t want to hear nothing. Not until one day came that made all the difference in my life. I had a son, and I didn’t want him to grow up like I had. I had been an alcoholic, drug addict and convict. At an early age, I brought my son to the Faith and Hope Community Center. Unfortunately, it did not work out for him as well as it is for some of the young men I intend to introduce you to.

  

Here: Shamar is young man is destined to one day be a Champion Boxer. He has charisma; he’s sharp and dedicated. He says: “I have learned self control. It has kept me out of trouble, and pure pressure of everyday living. I have been working out for two years. If I didn’t have this center to come to, I would probably be headed for trouble.” Shamar is a great 16-year-old whose demeanor shines like a star. I see a hard working young man who believes in making his dream come true.

Here: Fady has been coming to the Faith and Hope Center for seven years. “This place has kept my mind off the bull**** of the street. If not for the center, I would still work out on the street. But it would be nothing like executing my skills in a constructive manner, as I do here at the gym. I love these instructors and fellow boxers like I love my blood family.” I have been to Fady’s boxing matches and he is both bull and matador. He works hard at what he does with great dedication. He follows instructions and executes his skills like a natural. I look forward to seeing Fady some day as a Pro Boxer and a Champion.
