    Sugar Ray Leonard is a professional boxer, motivational speaker and actor. He is one of the greatest boxers of all time.  He won a lot of medals. His speed was like no other, he was fast. He is definitely one of my favorite sports icons. He inspired a lot of other boxers.

    He is also the founder of the Sugar Ray Leonard Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting type 1 diabetes, a condition that Leonard himself was diagnosed with.  He also has a boxing center in Prince George’s county, Maryland which serves as a training facility for young athletes. The Sugar Ray Leonard Boxing Center provides a safe and supportive environment for kids to develop their skills, both in and out of the ring.

    Some of the quotes that I liked by him:

    “I’m not religious, but I believe that what I have is a gift, and I respect it and live up to it”

    “Boxing is the ultimate challenge. There is nothing that can compare to testing yourself the way you do every time you step in the ring.”

    “If you never know Failure you will never know success.”

    I definitely got to give him his roses today. He has inspired so many people all over the world. And he is still doing a lot in the community.

  • We Have a Ghost (Film)

    Movie: We Have a Ghost

    Watch: On Netflix

    By: Cece Hymes

    This movie was pretty good. It was about a ghost in a house that ran people off. This other family moves into the house and when the teenage boy finds a ghost in the attic he is not scared. He records to make sure it is real and wants to help the ghost. When his brother sees the video on his brother’s phone he shows his dad and his dad wants to upload it on YouTube. He thinks this will help him become famous and make money.

    Ernest, who is the ghost, can’t remember what happened to him. He is unable to speak and is really friendly. Kevin, the teenager, becomes friends with the ghost. Kevin and his neighbor start finding clues to figure out who Ernest is. A washed up scientist who once headed a CIA program to investigate paranormal activity sees the YouTube that Kevin Dad Frank put up. She sees this as an opportunity to get back into her Career. She is determined to get Ernest and put him up under observation.

    Kevin and the neighbor find a picture with Ernest and a guy. They find out who the guy is and where he lives. They have to drive miles to go find him. So, Kevin takes his brother’s car and he and the neighbor leave. On their journey they run into cops, and they get away. They go through some things to get to their destination. Little by little Ernest sees little parts of his life when he was alive of a little girl who is his daughter.

    They get to the guy’s house and then the cops bust in and capture Ernest. Kevin is sad because Ernest is his best friend and it’s like he can’t help him get away. He really wanted to help Ernest, that’s his friend. I don’t want to give up all the details of the movie. You have to go watch it.

    If you see it let me know what your thoughts are. I really enjoyed it. It has some humor parts, action and also emotional parts but overall, it is a great movie. It is inspiring also. Make sure to follow me @Cece.atl

     

     

     

     

  • Eat Pray Love Film

    Movie: Eat Pray Love

    By: Cece Hymes

    This movie came out back in 2010. I am just now watching it and it was good. I love Julie Roberts. She is a great actor. This film was about a lady named Liz that thought she had everything she ever wanted in life, a home, a husband, a great career. She finds herself not happy. She wants to find out what is important to her and what makes her happy. She gets divorced and then goes to travel to different countries to figure out life.

    Liz travels to Italy, India and Bali and learns things on her journey. She meets new friends, learns to meditate and finds she loves to eat. She still has feelings and can’t seem to get over the pain of leaving her husband. She also helps people on her journey. She makes others happy while trying to figure out what makes her happy. She steps out of her comfort zone and tries new foods, studies a new language and reads and learns new cultures.

    I would love to travel to different places and to learn how other cultures live and see things. I started a new journey of mine to educate myself more on the world and what is right where I am. I want to travel to 50 states and different countries and at least do 3 to 5 things in each state.

    Watching this movie inspired me to continue my journey and not give up. To learn and listen. To meet new people and meditate. Also, on her journey she opens up again to date. She was scared to open her heart because she gets in deep when she is in a relationship and thinks she will lose herself. Sometimes people can forget who they are when they get involved with someone. Nothing like giving it a try you never know what it will bring.

    Great movie on Netflix if you watched it let me know what you think. If you haven’t, check it out. It is based on a true story of Elizabeth Gilbert’s personal experience.

  • True Spirit Film on Netflix

    Movie: True Spirit

    By: Cece Hymes

    This movie was about a teenager who plans to become the youngest sailor to travel the world alone. She has been traveling with her family all her life, so she thinks she is prepared for it. She has a mentor that guides her since she was a little girl and they practically become best friends. Her parents are scared but at the same time want her to follow her dreams. Her family is her biggest supporter and helps her prepare for her journey.

    Her mentor gets a team together to build her boat and make sure it is good. She will travel around the sea and back home. She didn’t think about how lonely it would be out there by herself, the food lasting, or not being able to move if there’s no wind.

    She goes through this journey and is able to call home and she blogs to keep the world informed of her mission and what is going on with her. She goes through a depressing point, and she really misses her family.

    It’s times out there on the sea where she is scared and goes through challenges. She sticks it out because she has no choice, thankfully she has her family to be a supporter and talk to her with guidance and support.

    Can you picture a 16-year-old all alone on the water and a female. The emotions that she has to go through. Not knowing if she is going to make it back home, not knowing how big the storms are going to be. This movie is also based on the true story of Jessica Watson. She had to overcome her greatest fear.

    If you haven’t checked out the movie check it out and let me know what you think. I loved it. I got inspired by it and also emotional. You can catch it on Netflix.

  • Trust Yourself

    Trust Yourself

    Listen to the advice of others, but also trust yourself.  Your intuition is your inner compass: it will point you in the right direction. Surrender to what your heart knows, even when others disagree. Your instincts are usually accurate when you nurture them.
