Lifestyle Spotlight ~ "My Mother, My Pool Table & Me"

As the evening winds down and my plans for tomorrow are being mentally prepared, this blogger had a dream request as I call it. Now many may wonder what is a "Dream Request" and please believe I am ready to release my blogger statement.

A dream request for me is when those things that I prayed for, had visions of and believed to be too far out of reach to me, began to come full circle. There is nothing like dreaming of various things concerning myself and before I know it they are in my view and attainable.

I remember being a young doe eyed twelve year old boy and my mother purchasing me a custom made kiddie pool table complete with chalk and custom made pool sticks. At first request I was totally ignored and almost garnered a quick thrashing from my mother, who always steered a tight ship when it came to respect but before long, I wore her down to the mental white meat. 

Oh the joy of waking up the morning of my amazing birthday and walking into our den and seeing my prized pool table. My hands began to sweat, my knees buckled and for some reason I almost wanted to release a tear from the corner of my perfectly God crafted eyelids.

Imagine the smile on my mothers face upon seeing how happy her only son was with receiving his hearts desire. I instantly got on the telephone and called over my two favorite cousins and we played a little pool until the sun began to set. 

As I partook in the night ritual of prepping for bed which consisted of bath, brushing of my adolescent teeth and more, all I could ponder on was the lovely and shiny pool table that was mentally calling my name. Before long I was racking them up and sending them home defeated.
