What are the most important things needed to live a good life?
Yesterday was my 26th birthday, and it was absolutely fantastic! I had a wonderful time, and I’m incredibly grateful for this beautiful, blessed good life of mine.
Life has been truly good, even spectacular! Why? Because the most important things I possess in order to have a good life are:
Faith.
God.
Boundless motivation.
Deep understanding.
Insight.
Self-Awareness.
Compassion.
Dedication.
Love.
Thrill.
Adventure.
Kindness.
The incredible support of family and friends.
I cherish and will carry these important things with me throughout all my days to come.
My name is Erykah Gray, but most people know me as Miss Gray. I hail from the charming town of Centreville in Southern Mississippi. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in English from The University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg and a Master of Arts in Literature from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. Today, I’m a proud doctoral student at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, because I believe that learning is a lifelong journey—and I’m passionate about being on that path. Teaching isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am. I love speaking, writing, and inspiring others to find their voice. Every day in my classroom, I strive to make learning exciting and meaningful while helping my students grow into confident, inspired thinkers ready to take on the world. Here, I plan to do the same.
