I will never be nominated for a BET award

But, that does not mean I should stop pursuing my dreams. Mary Lou Retton once said, “Each of us has a fire in our hearts for something. It’s our goal in life to find it and to keep it lit.” For Mary Lou, that fire was for gymnastics and Ronald Reagan. For me, it’s gymnastics and gymnastics. As a former child/gymnast, I’m naturally consumed by the sport. Do I still have nightmares about the time I attempted a front somersault off the horse and my spotter’s watch almost took my eye out? I’d be lying if I said no. Has that stopped me from looking for a coaching job? Yes, it scarred me for life.

    You’ve always reminded me of a cross between Ronald Reagan and Mary Lou Retton on fire.
