It would have been easy to compromise but I chose not to and
I stayed focus. I could have stayed a secretary as my father desired
according to his plan for me but I had bigger aspirations. I dreamt
big. God strengthened me and gave me wisdom. I had a passion and burning
desire to succeed. Being a secretary, a banker, a fashion icon, a
cooperate promoter and printer, a real estate owner, an oil magnate,
that I can assure you was no easy feat. Firm belief that what is worth
doing is what doing well or not doing at all. I took charge of my life
with the tools I have shared with you. I chose to become born again at
the age of 40. I chose to make a covenant with God that if he would
bless me I would work for him all the days of my life. I chose to hold
on to the cross and look up to him every step of the way. Today
additional accomplishment includes a wife of almost 40 years, a mother,
grandmother, ministry, counseling, outreach, NGO Rose of Sharon
Foundation for widows and Author, writer, author of several
inspirational books. All I say to the glory of God. So I am 63 and I am
not yet done. So what is your excuse? I never went to a University and I
am proud to say so because I don't think I have done too badly. You do
not have to have a University education to be able to make it so count
yourselves privileged to have that education as part of the feather in
your cap" she said.
