The final Thought of Victory before the return of Daylight Savings Time, this Sunday, is (Ironically) both having your life "Spring Forward" towards the future, and also to have your life, for a second, "Fall Back" to the past. In other words, my final Thought of Victory before the return of Daylight Savings Time on early Sunday morning is in relation to Melody Joy's aforementioned T.O.V. about being reminded of the people who mistreated you, left you, and/or simply failed to reach the goals of their future endeavours just because they did you a favor by helping you potentially reach some of your major goals in your life.

I was reminded of how far I've come as a photographer, blogger, socialite, and friend of my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA last night at History Uncorked! at Pittsburgh's Heinz History Center. For a brief second at the gala, like in Melody's T.O.V., I was reminded of how many people treated me negative, unfair and unexpectedly in the manner of the aforementioned. Not to mentioned, the many shortcomings that came with the territory of trying to become a victor, and not a victim of being one of the most respected, bloggers, photographers, socialites and friends the Pittsburgh area has ever known. However, I was more reminded of those who've always had my back since day one, including some of those who've always supported me, as well as become great friends of mine throughout the last few years of my life! And some of those people were at the gala at the Heinz History Center last night! 

I have to give a great shoutout to four of those friend/supporters of mine who I was so elated to run into at History Uncorked last night! Heather Abraham of KDKA-TV, Cara Sapida of WPXI-TV, Demetrius Ivory of WTAE-TV and Kym Gable of KDKA-TV. They not only have had the honor of having their photograph taken by me in the past, but I've also had the great honor to slightly get to know them as awesome, loving and supportive people off camera, as well on it!

Though I'm only limited to only seeing them at great events like History Uncorked last night, the fact that successful people like them have supported my God-Given talents, let alone have gotten to know me through my God-Given talents, is something that is praiseworthy! However some of those people, who have the same Pittsburgh Television/Electronic Media occupations as the aforementioned personalities that I saw last night at History Uncorked, or other "High Profile" occupations around the Pittsburgh area, and beyond, are people that Melody referred to as those who unexpectedly mistreated me, left me, and/or simply failed to reach the goals of their future endeavours. However, just because they did me a favor by helped me potentially reach some of my major goals in your life, doesn't mean that they should be desecrated, nor celebrated, once I reached my goals.

 Melody was right about being reminded of those people who've mistreated you in the past once you've reached your God-Fulfilling destinies in the future. However, I have to say that Melody (With all due respect to her) is wrong about one thing. When you reach your goals, which are God-Fulfilling destinies, rather than desecrate those who did you wrong in the past, celebrate those who did you right in the past! Rather, pull a Mathew 5:44 and do good to those who did bad unto you en route to fulfilling your many destinies (Goals) laid out by the most high God by focusing more on your celebrators of the past, and not the desecrators of your past!
