Dream, Wide Awake.

There are those who dream of a world that does not yet exist; of a world that must exist. They dream of a future that must be created.

They are the artists...
They are the ones who dream WIDE AWAKE.
-E. McManus

What do you get when you get a kid who graduated from high school with a total GPA of 1.9? (yes, that's a D+)
What do you get when that kid finds his passion right before walking out of high school?
What do you get when that person spent time in HOTS class? (translation = slow classes)
What do you get when that boy gets accepted into college on academic probation?

You get Anthony Kladitis

What do you get when you defy the odds of your past?
What do you get when after graduating from college, you get put through the blender in your first job?
What do you get when you almost quit -but put one foot in front of the the other?


You get Anthony Kladitis

What do you get when you work full time, and go to school full time to receive your M.Div?
What do you get when instead of driving home to be with the one person you miss most, you sleep on library floors?
What do you get when instead of graduating in 3 years it takes you 4?

You get Anthony Kladitis

What do you get when after a month of graduating with your M.Div. you start your second master's degree?
What do you get when your heart gets ripped out of your chest and you try to find a way to live again?

You get Anthony Kladtis

What do you get when you set out to defy the odds again and apply for your Ph.D?
What do you get when others just can't see what you can see? 
When others don't believe you can accomplish what sets your heart ablaze?
When people want to see you fail but you persist?



You get me.
