This is the first posting and I hope you will become a regular visitor. Check back every week for updates. Jackie Robinson was one of my very first heroes so I am proud to have him here on my first posting. In case you can’t read the text it says…”A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.”
Let me first share a bit about myself. I am the father of four very special beings and a brand new very proud grandfather. 
My newest hero and first grandaughter Layla at 3 months. Her mom is one of my heroes as well, as are all my kids.
I spent over 25 years in France, where I worked as a fashion photographer until I returned to the states and experienced some personal challenges that led to a very different life.
I was living in Santa Fe at the time and they have a saying there…”Do you know how you make God laugh?…..Tell Him your plans.” I am now much more concerned in knowing what God’s plans might be for me than in letting my ego dictate where I should go or what I should do.
I founded and now run a non profit organization dedicated to promoting the teachings of my teacher, Sidi Shayhk Mohammad Al Jamal Ar Rifai, the head of the higher Sufi Council in Jerusalem and the Middle East, and helping him as he travels to many communities through out the U.S. as he helps people heal from emotional, physical and spiritual challenges.
This photo was taken on one of Sidi’s first trips to this country. He has been a consistent presence in this country for over a decade now, and had published over a dozen books. You can learn more about him at www.sufimaster.org
I also made a two part documentary about him called “THE TRUTH OF A SUFI.”
Last year I have published a book about how I met him when he was what is known as a “hidden teacher” called “MY JOURNEY TO KNOW THE TRUTH” with the subtitle “Healing the Broken Heart.” You can order this book through Amazon or at www.healingthebrokenheart.com. You can also download this book as an ebook at that site. All of the proceeds from the sale of this book goes to the poor.
I also teach and mentor people how to build a home based business and have a website focused on this
activity. If you visit the website at www.tonykent.com by filling out a survey you can download for free my first book called “WALKING IN AWARENESS” which is fpcused very strongly on personal growth and the spiritual principles I used to build a large organization from my home.
My current business is focused on an exciting new discovery of a natural stem cell enhancer which comes from blue green algae. The company is called Stem Tech and the product is called Stem Enhance. This is an extraordinary beneficial product, for both humans and animals, and you can learn all about it at my webstie www.tonykent.com under the opportunity section. I am focused right now on finding people I can partner with and mentor in this business, so if you are looking for something you can do part time and make a difference in the world, please look it over and call me.
One of my passions in life is helping people to help themselves. I am looking forward to posting constant updates here sharing with you many of the ideas I have been taught over the years that have allowed me to lead what has been for me an immensely rewarding life.
I look forward to seeing you back here soon. In the meantime here is a poem that my oldest daughter shared with me years ago from an unknown author.
When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what THAT face has to say
For it isn’t your father or mother or spouse
Whose judgment upon you must pass
The person whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one looking back from the glass
Some people might think you’re a straight-shooting chum
And call you a great gal or guy
But the face in the glass says you’re only a bum
If you can’t look him straight in the eye
That’s the one you must please
Never mind all the rest
That’s the one with you clear to the end
And you know you have passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the face in the glass is your friend
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on your back as you pass
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you’ve cheated the face in the glass

Many thanks and many blessings
