"Keep Your Wits About You Corey."

Whenever I went somewhere my Mother used to tell me to "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." I could be on my way into work and she would say: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." I would be on my way home from work and she would say: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." I could be on my way to the gym and she would remind me: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." Going to Starbucks and: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." Traveling to Europe: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." Before and during the time I was in Africa: "Keep Your Wits About You Corey." She never stopped reminding me of the things that she knew I would not forget.

She never stopped reminding me of the things that she knew I would not forget!

She never stopped reminding me of the things that she knew I would not forget!

She NEVER stopped reminding me of the things that she knew I would not forget!

Every smiling face ain't your friend! Some of those warm greetings are actually cold as ice, just camouflaged as such. What might appear as an innocent comment, inquiry, gesture or look could as easily be one of those vicious attacks that are increasingly perpetrated on a daily basis!

It is unfortunate that we live in a time where we have to militarily equip ourselves against an enemy that is well disguised, well informed and eager to destroy! Yes Mom, I am still keeping my wits about me!

I wrap my children in the Word, Knowledge and Reverence of GOD to allow HIM to shield them from dangers both seen and unseen, whether daddy is present or not. Yes Mom, I am still keeping my wits about me!

They say that defense wins championships. Well, my offensive line is the LORD and since his nickname is "Slash" expect HIM to be my quarterback "Slash" running back "Slash" blocker "Slash" safety "Slash" linebacker "Slash" cornerback "Slash" referee "Slash" COACH! Yes Mom, I am still keeping my wits about me!

Everything that I am and everything that I do will forever represent the LOVE that my Mother had for me. Yes Mom, I am still keeping my wits about me!

If you still have your Mother here, call her, go see her and tell her that yes, you are and will continue to "Keep Your Wits About You." She will know exactly what you're talking about.

Continue to "Keep Your Wits About You".....Corey

Love and My Mother are the Inspiration!
Love and My Mother are the Motivation!
Love and My Mother are the Celebration!

All the Best, All the Time!
Corey
