On Tuesday, July 26, 2011 my paternal grandfather, Deacon Tally Adams, Jr. transitioned into eternity. I arrived home to SC on Thursday morning, relieved to be around my family, but on Friday morning, I wrote this:
"Waking up today felt different...
My heart grieves. Presently, my world seems quite surreal - stuck in a 1st gear of autopilot, as it reluctantly chases reality. BUT GOD. He gives comfort through both His Word and the unity of family; and THAT alone gives reason to celebrate."

| Father's Day 2011 :) |
Along with my father, my
grandfather moved me from SC into my first apartment in FL. Excited
about my new endeavor, he even attended the Behind the Scenes tour with
me at FULL SAIL, satisfied that I had made the right decision. I am
forever grateful for the discipline he instilled in me to never let go
of my heart's desires, and I will show my appreciation as I encourage
and lead others to do the same.
Missing him so much...
Listen!! Don't just hear but LISTEN to what is being said and absorb the knowledge being given to YOU by those who have made it possible for YOU to be the best YOU. Allow the inner man in YOU to determine what YOU take and what YOU leave from the words said to YOU. Only YOU decide where YOU will go, what YOU will do and who YOU will become. There is only one YOU!!!
