Well I just started up this blog mainly to give myself an avenue to express my feeling. Think of it as a journal...that I let the entire civilized world the opportunity to read. Many of my close personal friends have blogs that they use for all types of things; random thoughts, plans, goals, things of that nature. This one will follow along the same basic format, except I will attempt to be as open as possible about the things going on in my life. The title of my blog, "Miami State of Mind", is in reference to my ultimate goal in life, to one day (and one day in the near future I hope) reside and live comfortably in the city of Miami. It has always been my dream, it has always been my fantasy, it is what drives me. It is the reason why I wake up every morning, because of my belief that one day I will open my eyes at sunrise and look out the window and gaze upon the beauty that is South Florida. I had the opportunity to visit the area back in 2005 when I was still in high school for spring break. Took a week off from work, gave my friend Avis a lift to Georgia to see her then-boyfriend (now husband), and drove the rest of the way down there. I slept in my car for a week and I still enjoyed it, that's how much I love the city. Miami, Florida is a beautiful place. I have always want to live there and hopefully I'll make it there one day. My current goal is to live there in time for the Opening Day of the new Marlins stadium, (April 2012) but just like all good plans...they find a way to change. A lot has already changed from the last time I was there in 2005, I'm in debt up to my eyeballs, I'm a high school dropout with a GED, and I have a two year old daughter (whom I love with all my heart and soul) in Michigan whose mother will be taking me to court for child support within the next year.
But as the saying goes, "Things always get worse, before they start to get better."
