Time Freedom and Financial Independence
/ Autumn McKenzie JacksonHistorically, money and I have had a pretty passive relationship. I thought we understood each other pretty well. For the most part, I spent less than I had and understood the value of protecting my credit score. I had enough to do the things that I wanted to do and I am thankful. These days, I value time freedom. It is not until I tried to use my time that I realized that my freedom was limited by money. There are so tightly hinged together that I cannot talk about one without the other. Therefore, although it is time freedom that I seek, I must also speak of financial independence. I am on a mission to unhinge my time from money in my life. Who's with me?
Being mothered is a universal experience. It is a life long process.
I am grateful for all those who have touched my life and continue to invest in me in this way. God is intentional.. It is out of the abundance of His love through others that compels me.

I don’t know exactly when I realized that I was scheduled to work the same day Audrey and I were to fly to Orlando, Fl for National Club Swimming Association (NCSA) Age Group Championships.
As I prepared for my brother’s life celebration, I found out that I had no way to prepare for what I experienced. I already have the utmost admiration for my brother, still, over the course of one afternoon at West Point…
I am certain I did not understand the full significance of what he wrote then nor do I now, but I knew enough to hold onto his letters.
I tend not to be awestruck, but my older brother, Darrell, is an exception. He is my superhero.
