By.Jerrit Montgomery.
It's about 7:30 am. as I sit on my bed looking out of my bedroom window.thinking to myself seeing people walk by..look at my people acting like beast because they have not realize their human form. Living in new Orleans projects it's hard me back and forth to jail until one day my mind clicked asking myself.. am I really from the project or am I the project? because a project is not a building but a experiment. a test..something put in plan until accomplished. My hold life I lived as a lab rat. now I live willing to accept the challenge as a test and not that blind lab rat unintentionally being apart of a project or experiment tested with alcohol.drugs fast women guns car or money..the thing's that have my people destracted from the most serious things in life.i also thought how pharaoh did Moses people in the bible telling them to kill their men and let their women live. O'my GOD They are mentally killing us!. remove the Man and the rest of the house will fall.its like every government had a hidden project or experiment to use it's people of there town as lab rats.as I sit on my bad my life from childhood jail up until the new me and the situation and conditions of my people flashed before my eyes.i slowly get up walked to the restroom threw water in my face brush my teeth stopped and looked at myself in my bathroom mirror and whispered. thank you God for the new me.. and a second or more than second chances to get it right enough to see what I was really fighting.i begin to shave.. hopped in the shower.i heard my cell phone (Ring.Ring.Ring.) what the!

Me...Ok! cool I'll meet you there I feel like I need a little touch up myself (smile) I'll be there in 30min.my boy said cool see you then and hung up.i Rush back to the bedroom to finish getting dressed grabbed my car keys and headed out the door crawl in my big ram truck got her started up hit The music singing tennessee whiskey as the song play on the car stereo moving like the air cruising down the road. After 30min.i pulled in the barber shop parking lot to find my boy Steve waiting leaning on the hood of his beautiful red jag.smiling at me pulling up so I quickly park shut off the ram truck repeat tennessee whiskey song end and I'm jumping down from my truck.steve reach to shake hands.i tapped his hand then grabbed him with a hug happy to see him.I have a high respect for this brother Steve. he played a major role in me changing.he always did have money. He took me all over the world to show me what I'm missing throwing my life away the way i was living. Me... how long you been standing out here? Steve.. smiles about 5 minutes. Me...is the shop packed? Steve...no but I'm next plus I already to Craig you was on your way so he put you after me. I sneak a smile in..that's why I love you bro you been a true friend from day one. Steve...yea well thank you Jerry! and you have been so appreciative from day one smiling afterwards.i tap steve arm asking.. you ready to get on in to get it over? We begin to Walk towards the shop.a loud car horn destracted us but the beautiful face surprised us throwing her sexy voice out of the car window as it slowly go down hey Jerry! It been a long time since I saw you.how long has it been? Me... forever penny I'm happy to see you! I never thought I would ever see you again. Penny..hold on let me park! Me... Okay!. Looked at steve with a smile and a hand shake followed by the wisper I'll catch up hold my spot too. Steve nod his head and walked to the shop entry.i turned looking for penny can't seem to see her anywhere.then angels started to singing my name again. Jerry.over here!. Trying to play it cool doing the move I didn't really want to do I was so excited I really wanted to run to her arms grab her kids her and tell her I will never let her slip away again.back to reality.i shy brotherly slipped my hands in my pocket thinking since I changed its like my life is finally about to fall in order getting closer to penny. Me...Hey again pen. It been years I thought you moved to new York for good.wheres your boy friend?. Penny..It have been years! How old we was about? Me..16 and you was what 15.god pen how do you do it? You still look the same as teenage years. Pen...stress less eat healthy is all.

Pen..yea I guess I am for now. Me.. Walk with me get this old head trimmed up.we begin to Walk. Steve walk out the shop. They ready for you. I said Ok. Looked at penny asked are you in a rush? she said no! Not at all.......after hair cut was finished I talked to Steve for a few.penny ask where could I get something good to eat around here? Steve looked at me.i said I know a place!. So we took my truck.to a old favorite Slim teddy's burger bar..best food ever! and it looks like penny think so to.on the way to the truck steve started talking .I thought he was trying to be funny telling me that I could be a good role model. Me...bro I been to jail so many times! Steve..what moses.king david.paul. Jesus and so many more of God prophets been incarcerated. that how God show He really could change people.! Me...I never thought about that it is true.but I believe I'm a role model already that's why now I watch what I do. Steve..and you look like a real leader The way you move and speak plus you could talk to people from the hood because you really know where they come from and how they really feel! Me...I know.. before we could take another step it's a big crowd of people having
some kind of charity event.fast as it happens a big fight brake out.that hit me so hard knowing where I come from and what my people don't know. I tried so hard to walk away but couldn't.i turned my head and saw people watching the big fight from a stage and a mic.i can't I got to say something. I walked up the stage to the mic I didn't try to get the attention of those fighting or those walking by I just started to speak because I felt something have to be said and done about our conditions and situation and I was so amazed at how beautiful my words flowed out braking up even those fighting and stopping the onlookers walking by like I found my call. after I ended my speech of 2hours that attended to be no more than 5min. People came to me asking when and where do I usually have class.and they all was shocked when I said I don't speak teach or run a class. but that day I received many job offers finishing or adding my finishing touch to my new life as I became one of the greatest speaker's and writers in history. after I really understood the power of writing. I could reach more people with writing then speaking. As I begin my successful writing career becoming the first writer to inspire.enlighten. bestowed self-confidence. self-control. and completely influence over 10 thousand people. adults and children in every city, state, country, and county by writing only one 15. Page book. after six months past I managed my first educational event which turned out to be apic.because my first event and first speach is being spoken in front of millions of people who came in contact with my 15page book that touched them where it was most needed. I changed them for the betterment of life with only one 15 page book. I guess I left them hungry for more. I really was not asking for any of this. I just wanted to help people wake up and see that you will not change until you change what's in yourself. But God had something better plan for me making me well known and love all around the world As people begin to remember me Jerry the great now in the presence preparing the world to remember me and my words that give life in the future as they be taught in every school. church. and masjid. painting my legacy brightly in history.but I completed my life when I married penny and we lived happily ever after for every successful man was a great woman.i didn't asked for this life but God had a plan for me to give guidance with the power of writing
