A Blessing & A Prayer

Today, I was given news that my Godfather has passed away due to a car accident.

I have lots of memories of my Godfather growing up. He was a very reserved and well dressed man. He always looked his best whenever I saw him, whether it be my birthday or my confirmation. He was a good man, like my father.

Sometimes things change in life so much that you have to make sure you take a moment and watch what life has given you.

I have so much respect for my Godfather, and being a Godfather myself, made me think a little deeper about the legacy I would like to leave my God Children.

My Godson actually heard of the news and empathized with the reality that I no longer have a Godfather. Maybe he put himself in my shoes for a moment and his heart fell heavy. He ended up giving me a hug and telling me he was sorry for my lost. What a sweet gesture from a kind soul.

That made me really think about what legacy I would like to leave my Godson one day. And as a Godparent, I was chosen by my Godchild's parents to be a mentor, and additional father figure for them as they grow up and mature through their journey in God and Faith.

So I leave this message with a Blessing and a Prayer for my Godfather...




Angel de Dios, Mi querido Guardián; fuiste enviado para protegernos. En este día permanece junto a mí, para alumbrar y guiar, guardarme y dirigirme. Enseñame, mi querido Angel de la Guarda, a conocer a Dios, para amarlo y servirlo por siempre. Aléjame de todo peligro y enseñame el camino al Cielo. Amén.

May you rest in peace padrino.

COSMOS

"Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known."

• Carl Sagan

With all the garbage TV in this world from talent shows, to reality TV, to horrible technology and social media habits created from our society. Nothing can properly express how relived I am that #COSMOS has return to enlighten and give proper perspective on our existence and thirst to always question everything and learn from it.

I used to love science as a young pup, but lacked the focus and attention to really breakdown what I was learning. But space and time always fascinated me.

If you aren't already a slave to your phone, or reality TV. Do your brain a favor and watch this new revision if COSMOS with Neil DeGrasse Tyson.

I promise you won't regret it!
