Naomi, good for you !! 👍🙏

Good for Naomi. Because unless you experienced the anxiety and depression that she has, you don't know. I repeat you don't know.

The tennis officials are full of BS, when they say they don't want to give players an unfair advantage, it's about money and promotion. Remember Duane Thomas a 1970s star running back for the Dallas Cowboys, he never spoke to the press, never.

I dealt with depression, I went to work and did little more. I arrived to work barely by 8:00 a.m. . And out the door by 5:05 p.m. I came home, went to my room did little else. It took all my might and will to go to my daughter's High School graduation, her college graduation, to go to my daughter's basketball games, went to a niece's wedding talked to no one, went to Sunday Mass because my former wife forced me to,  didn't play any golf, didn't grow a garden, didn't go to YMCA,  etc etc.  I did what I had to do, work,  but little else. It sucked for everyone. Yes, some criticized me.

The tennis organizations should be more concerned that Naomi is willing to play, then if she gives some idiotic press conference, and answer repetitive questions that most fans don't even care about.

Wake up tennis organizations ,  you might drive one of the best and popular female tennis players out of the game.

You might disagree with me , but then you probably never dealt with depression and anxiety at the level that Naomi is. Keep her in your prayers that she is able to overcome this terrible illness. Please don't criticize her. 
Amen.

God's love  🖇🔗 Tru dat.. . And if it was God’s will, then it was God’s will for Ted to die at an early age. Just like when parents lose a loved one, a parent, child, or unborn fetus . Parents suffer through miscarriages . The fetus is an initial blessing that joins the parents to new life, and in the tragedy of losing the fetus it joins them even more. The fetus’s life is still life, still a blessing .  Like having a puppy. It is a blessing to find and adopt the puppies we have, but life leads to death. As I experienced when Ted died, it can be death that occurs within the embrace of love, with people who love us. This is God’s will, too. It is all part of accepting life. Accept God’s will, which involves such incredible diversity and change, blessings, and sufferings, too. But it is not my will, it is God’s will. January 1987 , we suffered through a miscarriage , our first pregnancy.  It was heartbreaking, truly heartbreaking.  Just the two of us at home , not knowin

Many of you have heard of my infamous first solo driving of one of our market trucks on the road. ( Ref :  AUGUST 1974    But , with the 4th of July holiday weekend, my mind remembers the 4th of July weekend, 1976. Pathmark supermarkets had given AJ SCHMITT and SONS a large vegetable order for the holiday weekend.  July 2, 1976 was a Friday, and thus we could fulfill that order. Hunts Point Terminal Produce was not operational on early Saturdays or Sundays mornings. We never made trips to HPTP on Fridays or Saturdays. Thus, both trucks could be used to deliver the huge order to Pathmark warehouse, 60 miles away in Carteret NJ. And all farm workers could help harvest that order. We had a few high school guys , my brother and I included, working on the farm that summer. One of us would take a day off, and it would be rotated among the high school guys. That Friday I had the day off. We still had not gotten a refrigerated tractor trailer to take produce to market. The plan  was to utiliz
