darnell jackson


sup peeps,
ya'll know how i do. it's time for another one. six degrees of separation, this time on my cousin darnell jackson. honestly, on a personal level, i don't know him that well. i wish i did, and for different reasons that most of ya'll may know. i lived over 100 miles away, and when i did visit my okc fam, he wasn't always with us. but now he's doing his thing, and i'm so proud of him so here's a little about him:

from high school basketball, to national champ in college at university of kansas, to the nba. it would seem that darnell lives the life most would dream of. yet, for anyone that may know his story, he suffered a few scars on the way losing three family members. still standing, he is the epitome of what strength means. truly a beacon of inspiration to me. i haven't been able to tell him in person so cuzzo, if you read this, take this from me:

congrats on the shoe endorsement
congrats on the commercial
congrats on making it to the nba
congrats on your success at kansas
congrats on the baby girl (she's beautiful man)
i wish you much more success and i hope that one day we can sit down and catch up with each other.

  34. Dom,
    As always I know your talent first hand and yet you always seem to surprise me. Your talent seems limitless and I hope that Darnell does get to read your blog on him and see how unselfish you are in giving him props and congrats. Him and the rest of your cousins are truly missing out on such a talented cousin!! I really enjoyed the new children's book about the "Restless Bunny" and I hope your fans go and buy it as well as other books you have published on Lulu.com. Keep reaching for the stars and never forget where you come from. Find your gold nugget it's just one book or one movie script away. I wish you true love, true peace, and financial success, and yes, you're fine too, I know, you came from me, Lol, love you truly, Ma!

  36. there will never be another you dom!
    some people use sports to get ahead in life, and you use your mind. i love that about you. not taking anything away from your cousin. i'm sure he's amazing. but you got a lot going for you. and soon the whole world will stop to notice.
