Your Truth Starts With You: Legacy, Fire, and Discipline

Uncle Clarence’s Sunday Dinner


The Fire Before the Sun

It’s dark outside. The world is still asleep.
But at the back of the house, the fire is alive.

A man stands in front of the grill. You don’t see his face, not really. Just the shadow of his back, lit only by the fire bursting to life. Sparks shoot into the air, painting the night orange and yellow.

His truth is burning.


Truth Doesn’t Come From the Crowd

That’s the thing about truth — it doesn’t come from other people. It doesn’t come from the crowd, from applause, or from who does or doesn’t believe in you.

Truth comes from within.
From what you’re willing to do when no one’s watching.

Your truth starts with you.


Discipline Is Legacy

For some, that truth might be chasing a dream.
For others, it’s the discipline of early mornings and late nights.

For Uncle Clarence, it was the fire. The grill. The smoke. The taste of something bigger than food — a legacy.

And here’s the truth:

  • You control your destiny.

  • You control your future.

  • You control your day-to-day actions.

Five seconds don’t define who you are. Your daily actions do.


The Work No One Sees

Uncle Clarence knew that. He lit the fire before the sun rose. He worked while others slept. He put in the time nobody else wanted to put in.

And in that time, in that discipline, he found his truth.

So when you see the flames leap out of that grill, remember — they’re more than fire. They’re passion. They’re sacrifice. They’re legacy.


Never Let Them Dull Your Fire

Never let anybody downplay your dreams.
Never let them tell you it’s too late, too hard, too much.

And when they try, ignore them. Because your truth was never theirs to begin with.

At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the energy we leave behind. The legacy we pass down. That’s the real fire. That’s what will outlast us all.


Your Legacy Starts With You

Your truth starts with you.
Your fire starts with you.
Your legacy starts with you.
