Today I bring you an inspiring story that was posted on my Empower Network team’s Facebook page.

This story brought tears of joy and gratitude to my eyes. I personally know this gentleman and am grateful for his post. What a difference he’s been able to make for his family, most especially his Mom.

So after I left the gym today, I swung thru my moms house…And outside her house was the Gas&Electric man, coming to cut off her power cuz she was behind by behind $1,800….

Of course my mother NEVER told me she was behind that bad….and by the tears in her eyes I could tell that she didn’t know how she was gonna pay it.

Any other time this had happened before, the lights got cut cuz nobody in my entire family had more than a few hundred dollars in any account they owned.

And even if everyone had put all the money they had together, it still wouldn’t have been enough, so the power would get cut….

And we would have to go MONTHS without power.

When I was younger, I remember having to take a cold shower in the dark and saying to myself “This is some BULLSHIT! How come nobody never got no fucking money whenever shit goes down”

I remember saying to myself “when I get older, I’m gonna make sure this NEVER happens to my mother again!”

Then today, years later, the Gas and Electric people came to come cut the power again, when I just happened to had stopped by my moms house after leaving the gym.

So, I just thought I’d share with you guys the picture of the receipt after I paid the guy for the full amount.
