Black History Moment: Henry "Box" Brown

Henry "Box" Brown (1815-1879?) was a Virginia slave who escaped to freedom by arranging to have himself mailed to Philadelphia abolitionists in a wooden crate. Brown's box traveled by wagon, railroad, steamboat, railroad and ferry. Several times during the 27-hour journey, carriers placed the box upside-down or handled it roughly, but Brown was able to remain still enough to avoid detection.

Remarkable story!

Terrence J's Words of Encouragement via Twitter

I'm taking heed....Read actor, TV host and humanitarian Terrence J's recent Twitter posts:


Today is a new day. A new opprotunity to follow your dreams. Take advantage of this blessing. Take that leap. Whatever your dream is, u have 2 step towards it. The more steps you take the more the universe will conspire to assist you...If you want to run a label, quit your job at the bank & intern at a label. If you want to be a doctor, apply to school today, etc...I wanted to act, so every week I go 2 acting school for 14 hours, study film & actors, read abt projects, etc. Once I took steps, roles came A girl replied, how can I pay my bills if I quit my job 2 follow my dreams? - when following ur dreams u will be temporarily inconvenienced Tyler Perry was HOMELESS years before becoming a MILLIONAIRE. Only you can determine the amount of sacrifice ur dreams are worth. Before 106 I had a job making 30k but I wasnt happy. I quit. Moved to NY, worked small jobs to get by, & lived on @FredWhit FLOOR 8MONTHS! Everybody has a different story. U may have kids, mortgage, bills, etc. But God is powerful. There is always a way to follow your dreams I just meet so many people that want to reach their goals & then complain when it sounds hard! Go watch Pursuit of Happiness lol.

Everyones dreams are different and that what makes them unique. Above all Terrence is right, GOD IS POWERFUL. Trust in Him and He WILL direct your path.
