In honor of this day, I wanted to write about what touched me most: faith. Like many, I find myself at point in life where I just don't have the same willpower I once did.

When giving up is not an option, but motivation isn't working, where else can you turn?

My most recent superfluous expenditure was my 100-dollars-a-pop July 9th tickets. Nevermind that my (BRAND-SPANKIN'-NEW) car broke down en-route to the game, I got to attend one of the greatest days of Derek Jeter’s career. Congrats on 3,000 Captain, and here's five reasons everyone should love Derek Jeter.
