As my blog went on and on I had thought what was the purpose of this. And well I always hoped to inform people I had lost touch with, but my main goal with this is to show people, show YOU, that anything is possible with God. Any dream, idea, hope, desire, that you have is possible regardless of the situation your in. Today I got the best email I seriously have ever gotten to this day. I can't remember an email lifting up my spirits as this one did. There are so many kids, people, who have this same dream I have, have this same goal I have. I'm just ONE of over 10 million or more kids around the world who have the dream of playing soccer professionally. Well today I receive a random email from a boy named Nick from Budapest (the power of the internet connecting people from all over the world). He tells me he came across my blog, and he's been blogging for about 21 months, with details about his daily trials in life, his training sessions, trials with teams, and how he has NOT found success yet. But this kid is so confident, so optimistic, so sure he's going to make it. He makes me remember when I was thinking like that. He's still in search of his first professional contract but his hard work ethic, and dreams have taken him a long way already. And he is on his way I promise you this kid will have a contract offer before the end of this year, and I will post a congratulatory blog to him. But anyway he thanks me for writing, and tells me to continue pressing on, to not give up, to fight for my dreams! Nick this part is for you, as you wrote that email, you likely thought nothing of it, but let me tell you, you have reminded me of what it is to want something bad again, what it takes, the hard work, and you have lifted my spirits! Thank you Nick.
Anyways ya might be wondering why my spirits are down...Well this email comes on the brink of bad news/good news, and a very poor mistake in my game today against first place team Central Florida Kraze. 11 days ago, I caught an injury on the top of my foot, appeared to be a foot sprain, I trained right through it and would ice it occasionally after some training sessions. From there two days ago, during the game at IMG, I was on the wrong end of a bad, and wreck less tackle. This led to me injuring my foot during the game and coming off in the 40th minute.
After getting treatment on it yesterday, the trainers revealed I was definitely hurt, and should not play todays game, and I could have a fractured foot. Good news though today the doctor took a look at me, and said you have a bad ankle sprain but I can't tell you if you shouldn't play or not, only you know the degree of pain you feel, and whether or not you should play on it. I've never been the one to sit out, and never will be, that's just me. So I told coach I wanted to play and start, he said he wouldn't start me but would bring me off the bench. I wasn't too happy about it, but I'm there to support my team and hope for a win. We score a goal about 25 minutes into the game and are up 1-0. With that we go into the half.
At the start of the second half I come in and am feeling pretty good, nothing really worth noting till about the 75th minute or so, when we get another goal and are ahead 2-0! Everything is looking great, then.......the 85th minute struck. We have a great attack that leads to what SHOULD HAVE been called a PK but instead play resumed they got on our side of the pitch and won a corner kick. From the corner they win a second header wide open and smash one home. 2-1. 87th minute I lose a ball after taking tooooooooooooo many touches on our half, they quickly attack get into the box, they're player CLEARLY dives, and they get the call for a penalty kick 2-2. Then we start to press into the attack, and we have a beautiful thru ball creating a 50/50 ball with our player and their goalkeeper. There keeper completely misses the ball destroys our player INSIDE the box, but the goalie only gets a yellow card, and we get rewarded not a PK, but a free kick. Off the free kick we hit the cross bar take a shot hit the post again! Continue pressing on get a corner kick, and we couldn't capitalize and that wrapped up the game. 2-2 final.
Needless to say I was feeling hurt again, and feeling even worse for being the cause of the build up for their second goal. But luckily I'm blessed with a great family, who has always been there for me when times are hard, and things don't look good and ya wanna quit. I'm also blessed with beautiful friendships like those who always are trying to help me, from words of encouragement to, helping me with the next step in my career. Those people know who they are, and I am TRULY thankful like you guys wouldn't believe for every text message, phone call, tweet, fb message etc etc. Anyways this post is just a thankful one, for those who keep me up when I'm down. For those of you who are down, listen even if your far away from the love of your family and friends, the love of God is always just a prayer away. He's waiting for you, in fact He's waiting for me right now, I need to get into prayer and worship my God who is so good to me! Thank you heavenly father, for blessing me with all the people you continue to put into my life, and for all the things and people I already have. I am truly thankful, because I do notice you as you work on my life. I love you my God. God is love.
God Bless!!

Jax vs Mississippi
First game of the season on the road, nice big field but it was some real hard turf I didn't like it very much but oh well. Their team was very well organized they had weak links which I felt we attacked well. But in the end we were unable to come out on top. The final score was 3-1 but the game was a lot closer than what the score shows.
The game started out I think with everyone a bit of nervousness as it was our first game as a new franchise and our first game of the season. The referee was a bit of a joke in my mind, but what can we do. They scored a goal off a counter attack that came off of our corner kick, Gonzo appeared to get fouled we got no call they countered us and just like that 36 minutes into our first game we were down 1-0. In about the 43rd minute Fries made diagonal run where him, the ball and goalkeeper all collided...The ball continued rolling along as the goalkeeper swept Fries off his feet. Referee?? No call. We went into the half down one goal..
The second half we came out very aggressive and dominated we kept attacking there goal till about the 60 some odd minute when we finally had a corner where the ball bounced in the area Gonzo hit it towards goal, deflected off of one of there defenders and into the net! 1-1.
We kept more possession of the ball and worked it up onto their side then at around the 70th minute or so we made a pretty bad mistake defensively and they capitalized and made the score 2-1 after that we went into full attack mode to try and steal a point on the road, instead in stoppage time in about the 93rd minute they hit a thru ball and got their third goal on a break away and that was that.
On a positive note I love the way our team responded after being down 1-0 at halftime, and it was our first game together ever, so I expect good things in our next game and for the season. The player of the game for me was Doug Parra making a ton of saves, very impressive. Now were in Nashville and we kick off tomorrow at 7pm good luck to us. We miss you guys back at Jacksonville and can't wait for this Thursdays home opener but first we need to tackle this game and go back home with 3 points!

First 48
I promised a few people I'd blog especially Allie so here I go! A lot of exciting stuff has been going on since arriving Monday. Let's start off with Monday, I had a nice family going away breakfast, while celebrating my little brothers 14th birthday, it was really cool I enjoyed everyones company who was there and was sad/excited to leave on my little brothers birthday for obvious reasons. Anyways if you everrrrrrrrrrrrrr have the option of driving alone or with someone for more than 2 hours choose with someone, on my 4 1/2 hour drive from Miami to Jacksonville it was extremely boring I literally entertained myself by singing along to all the different types of music I had on my iPod. I gotta admit I'm gonna be trying out for American Idol when it comes around, haa.
So upon my arrival to Jacksonville, I got ready for my first training session with the team we are still missing something like 4-6 players I think, but the majority of the group is here and at first glance we have a pretty solid team that I'm excited to be apart of. I think the most exciting part of being with the Jax Destroyers is the community and how they are so involved with getting our name out there, and getting us support. This community up here seems like it just filled with such great spirited, positive, heart warming people. It's really a pleasure to be apart of this team, and it's got the feeling of maybe something special being able to come out of this season despite being a new team in PDL. I don't really know the level of competition in PDL so I can't really speak much of where our team would rank or anything. I really do love the professionalism that this club has from its board members, coaches, trainers, and training sessions. Coach Eric Dutt and his staff seem to be doing a wonderful job, and I'm really liking how things are shaping out through two days. A little premature, but at least were off on the right foot.
I have been immensely blessed with my living arrangement!! It's really crazy to me, how one of the women on the board Susan Pitman accepted to take me into her home, and live with her and her family. It is her, her husband, their two sons of age 15, and 17 and a dog and a cat. They have given me my own room, have allowed me to eat their food, use their bathrooms, TVs, everything whatever I need. It's crazy they basically took a stranger and allowed them to live with them. As we got to know each other over the past two days, I have learned they are Christians, and are fully devoted. I mean seriously, do you reallyyyyyyyyyyy think that's a coincidence? I sure don't, I know God does things His way for His reason, I can already feel my faith being strengthened by just being around them. Such a great and positive family, they have been more than gracious with me and I can't thank God enough.
I'm gonna cut this blog off here, but things have just been going awesome all around, I really can't complain. God has blessed me with favor, grace, and just continues to bless me with great situations! I'm looking forward to season filled with Gods glory! I'm off to an interview with Web.com to try and hopefully get a summer job which will be exciting :) We travel tomorrow to Mississippi to play the defending southeastern region champs, it ain't no thang though, we got a good team , and I look forward to pulling out a good result! Also if your on facebook go like the "Jax Destroyers" page and show support, thanks guys! This wasn't proofread so bear with me!

Pensive...
I feel jotting some shi* down...
Anyways April 15th official signing to PDL Jax Destroyers.
Lotta feelings going thru me at this point in time and for the last couple of weeks, a lot decisions that I question and requestion if that's even a word.
Parents are in Europe have been there for almost two weeks they get back Cinco de Mayo.
Osama Bin Laden is dead, but it's not news to me...the media chooses what we hear, and what we don't.. What do I care for, same corrupt people running our government.
Looking forward to this summer, a nice getaway and just soccer everyday, God has given me a second chance to prove myself to be able to handle myself on my own, and succeed for His glory. I guess time will tell if I do my part this time around.
Temptation is a bit**
Enough....
God Bless..

Jacksonville
First off...This city is beautiful! Nice people, peaceful, calm, everyone has seemed genuinely nice. I've enjoyed this trip so far, it's tough so flying alone, and staying alone, having zero human contact for most of the day cause your in your room since you have no car, and know nobody here. Anyways I first off want to thank God, for this opportunity to come up here to try out with a PDL team which is basically a summer league soccer team. It's there first year having a team, Eric Dutt the coach allowed me to come up here for the last trial this weekend yesterday was my first day and in two hours will be my last day, then a select few (including me I've been told) will play against Jacksonville University. Things are looking real good, and I think the most important factor, element, or whatever you want to call it is that I have allowed God to take control, and stopped trying to make things happen in my own strength. I remembered now that I am not able, or good enough to make this happen but God is my sole purpose and reason for continuing to pursue this dream. I believe it's Gods calling for my life. So things so far on this trip have definitely been a positive! I'm not gonna front though, I've been lonely up here I don't feel I have many people to talk to back home that I could really open up to, but thankfully before I came up here my boy (thank God for this niggas life) Albert he told me "You should never feel lonely, God is there for you, He is all you will ever need, don't seek a person seek him." He's completely right, I'm seeking for this physical compassion or love from a woman that I don't need right now. I'm not gonna lie it would be nice to have that, I remember when I did and it's awesome to have that other half pushing you and supporting you but I'm here cause of Gods grace and I have to continually seek Him, and bring Glory to His kingdom. I want to thank God for all the people He's been putting along my path that are helping me to really grow as a person! I'm gonna leave this blog saved up for now and will recap after my last training session and game......
Okay I got there at about 1:15 with training starting at 3:00 so I was VERY early. Goalkeeper coach pulled up at about 2, he's from England and played pro and asked me about my background and said he liked the way I play, and he could tell I had previously played pro, we spoke for a decent amount of time, and he truthfully gave me a lot of confidence going into the training session. This last session was very light and we were put apart about 16 of us from the majority of the players trying out. We trained lightly and were spoken about what formation we were going to play against JU...So training was fine, I did well scored two goals in a 8v8 game and we wrapped up at about 4:30. From there we went all of us 16 players to Subway and one of the assistant coaches payed for everyone, along with a Gatorade! That must've been the biggest Subway bill they have ever seen. Anyways after that we went to the training ground to play our game against JU. I was chosen as one of the starters and the game kicked off. JU has a pretty good bunch, at least offensively they have some foreign international players who definitely know what they're doing. I played a pretty good game overall, I was dead tired in about the 80th minute and asked to be sub, so I rested the final 10 minutes. JU had a very good attack and scored on penalty kick, which wasn't a penalty kick there player and our goalie collided on a 50/50 ball and they gave the call to the player...Stupidest call ever but what can you do. We were fortunate enough to get a goal in about the 86th minute to tie it up at 1-1 and the game ended with that result. After my game I was rushing to see if I can make my flight in time, before I left the coaches all congratulated me, and then head coach Eric Dutt pulled me to the side to have a few words. He pretty much said they really liked me, and my style of play. I have to work on my fitness, and my technical ability just a bit, and I should really be good to go. He also mentioned the best news for me of the day which still has me smiling, that was "we definitely want to sign you, so i'll keep in touch with you in the upcoming days." Finally after so much struggling because of my self and the positions I had put my self into. I've come to God stayed close, kept a humble heart, and finally I'm playing soccer again. It may not be a professional contract or anything but it's a start, and you better believe I'm going to work and not take this for granted. On top of that not do things in my own strength but for Gods glory. I have some awesome mentors in my life who are definitely going to keep me close, and reminding of Gods word and his unconditional love!
Anyways so boom I rushed out of there with a big smile on my face Rafael Diaz, my driver who's Colombian had brought his family with him, to take me to the airport. It seemed as if I wasn't going to be on time, but whatever along the way we spoke his family, and I. And wouldn't you know it his family has a very close relationship with God. We got into speaking about Gods kingdom, and it's beautiful I don't know how to explain it, but it's like when you see God putting the right people in your life. I mean seriously how many personal drivers are going to first of all open up to you like that, second of all be close to God, third of all they have their own radio station which they sing, and preach basically Gods word. I mean God is just moving in my life, and it's amazing and a blessing to see the people he's bringing along the way. I can definitely see myself hanging out with them when I get back into town May 10th.
Unfortunately I was unable to make my flight in time, I tried speaking to any tenant but nobody at all was working. The airport literally looked deserted. I mean I'm from Miami were somewhat like New York, in the sense that the city is constantly in movement and people are working around the clock. Well not the case here, there was zero tenants and zero flights leaving the airport. I weighed my choices, spoke to a cop, and he said I could go up the street to the Clarion Hotel or sleep here till about 4-5AM and wait till the workers to come in. I called the Clarion and they gave me a discounted rate for missing my flight, and now I'm here just ordered some room service, and I'm ready to hit the bed and figure out my flight arrangements for tomorrow back to Miami. I'm still happy though, I'm not letting something like this take away my high. I'm thankful for having an awesome God who's still here for me, despite all the things I've done to Him. Thank you God, I love you, I'm grateful...Gnight guys see you in Miami soon. Love y'all.

Why do we hurt those who love us most..?
As I mentioned in my last post God will take things away as quickly as He gives them to you. He will many times give you what you've been asking Him for to test you, to see how you react once you have it, and if you can't handle it right He'll take it away I thank God he took soccer, money, and friends away from my life as they were all harming me in one way or another. Anyways in this post I plan on talking about, family, love and forgiveness in a way that they all tie together.
A question often asked is "Why do we hurt those who love us the most?". Well why do we? Why do we hurt our family, our closest friends, and our loved ones, and treat them as if our relationships with them had no meaning sometimes? I think the answer comes down too as we grow up we do things opposed to what our parents say, example don't jump on the bed we do and anger them, once they get angry we ask for forgiveness and it is given to us. Same thing with God people ask God for forgiveness and He grants it to you. That's why I think first of all God's love is so under appreciated. Since it's an unconditional love, one you don't work for it's not so appealing since you can have it "whenever" and since if you hurt it you feel you can walk all over it...you get what I'm saying? Same thing comes into play with our families they tell us not to do something we still do it, because we no to a certain extent at the end of the day they'll forgive us and things will go back to normal. With these two types of love being used as our foundation as the first loves we know. It causes us to have that mindset, I'm not saying it gives it a reasonable excuse what I'm saying is maybe that's why we hurt that girlfriend/boyfriend/best friend that we all have, cause sometimes were accustomed to having that infinite love from a loved one that no matter what they forgive you. I know I sure was accustomed to it, and thought I could basically get away with anything. But I've learned just cause someone loves you doesn't give you the right to hurt them, that is why usually when you first meet someone that you like you try to make sure you do things right, for that persons feelings can grow, and they begin to trust you. Once you feel you have enough of their love, you likely feel inclined to be able to do things, and have no repercussions if you say your sorry. But that's not how things work, and you should never picture them like that....Im gonna end this post here, just cause I feel like I'm going to keep ranting & I'm tired I've had a long day, I have to be up early tomorrow for my class, and need this sleep. Basically Love God, Love your family, Love those who treat you well and Love you for you. Don't take things for granted thank God for what you got.
God Bless!!
A question often asked is "Why do we hurt those who love us the most?". Well why do we? Why do we hurt our family, our closest friends, and our loved ones, and treat them as if our relationships with them had no meaning sometimes? I think the answer comes down too as we grow up we do things opposed to what our parents say, example don't jump on the bed we do and anger them, once they get angry we ask for forgiveness and it is given to us. Same thing with God people ask God for forgiveness and He grants it to you. That's why I think first of all God's love is so under appreciated. Since it's an unconditional love, one you don't work for it's not so appealing since you can have it "whenever" and since if you hurt it you feel you can walk all over it...you get what I'm saying? Same thing comes into play with our families they tell us not to do something we still do it, because we no to a certain extent at the end of the day they'll forgive us and things will go back to normal. With these two types of love being used as our foundation as the first loves we know. It causes us to have that mindset, I'm not saying it gives it a reasonable excuse what I'm saying is maybe that's why we hurt that girlfriend/boyfriend/best friend that we all have, cause sometimes were accustomed to having that infinite love from a loved one that no matter what they forgive you. I know I sure was accustomed to it, and thought I could basically get away with anything. But I've learned just cause someone loves you doesn't give you the right to hurt them, that is why usually when you first meet someone that you like you try to make sure you do things right, for that persons feelings can grow, and they begin to trust you. Once you feel you have enough of their love, you likely feel inclined to be able to do things, and have no repercussions if you say your sorry. But that's not how things work, and you should never picture them like that....Im gonna end this post here, just cause I feel like I'm going to keep ranting & I'm tired I've had a long day, I have to be up early tomorrow for my class, and need this sleep.
