I can spend all day talk about my life but I rather talk about my family and our growth together. Moving from house to house staying with family friends moving back into a new house just to get evicted again. Life seems to go on to happen before us unyielding a unwavering. But we keep moving on

When we got a new house and got evicted again when I was in elementary we have to wake up 5:30 in the morning just to make it to school on the other side of town and we didn't have a car so we have to ask for a ride from a friend. But we kept moving on

Even my parents arguing over bills money and food even when times got tough and the lights got cut off and we don't have anything to eat. We kept moving on

My father lost his mother do to someone killing her with a car while she was walking along the street didn't say to even see if she was alive or not. We kept moving on

Even when my mother was in a car accident and she almost lost her life my father made me and my siblings continue to go about life. He instructed my sister to say focus in the army he told my brother to keep playing basketball in college he told me to keep playing football instructing my little brother to stay in his books and he instructed my little sister to keep playing and having fun. And together we can move forward.

And man those with hard times full of pain crying heartbreak lost struggle. But we made it through. we were built off of work was raised with good character in strong morals my parents fought tooth-and-nail for we can have everything we need. I never be satisfied and never accept life for what it is you can create your own path and live a life you choose. Anything in this world you can have it quote by my father. My parents birthed greatness I grew up in a household where they told me that you will be great at anything you do because we raise you that way no question anything you achieve was not by accident it was built off hard work and humbleness. And be sure when you reach the top you shine as bright as you can that's why we named you Tarik it means Morning Star. Because we wanted people to know when they see the sun they see you whatever they see it rise they know you are on the come up and same with your siblings all of your names have a special meanings. We keep moving forward because this is what we do.

I can't talk about the good times trust and believe we have plenty of those laughs hugs kisses and unlimited love but we haven't achieved what we wanted yet so we keep moving forward. Until life becomes life
