It's Not About Me

About Me

I work at an area School District (for the past twenty-three years) as well as coach track & field. I have four beautiful children in whom I am very proud of: Keith Jr (my twin)who is also a member of the hit R&B group Final Draft (song playing on my profile), Kevin(my heart), Kyle (My baby boy) and Kayshea (My baby girl and my Princess).These are all who I live for and I love them very much. I have a wonderful woman in my life. Her name is Sheila (my first pic) and we have traveled many of roads together in these past years and have managed to overcome all of the obstacles that were placed before us. I love her dearly and she is my best friend. I also founded a summer track & field club which I have been doing for the past 10 years taking some of the area youth to track & field meets throughout the state. I find that all of it is very rewarding and fulfilling. "It's all good!" I also enjoy writing blogs in my spare time and you can find my blogs at http://krivers365.blogspot.com. The name of my column is titled “Your Take” and I invite you to visit my site and give me your input. And I have also been blessed to meet many, many great men and women here on My Space and through life’s travels. I fully believe that "No one is an island unto themselves" and that when people meet it is for a reason and that if I can add something positive to another's life then I am all the better for it. I am not here to be a "playa" but a friend. Those days are long gone and over for me. I am now in the fall period of my life where I can sit back and contemplate where I've been and where I have still yet to go. Now is the time to relax and enjoy all that God is and what He wants for me and to continue to walk in His purpose. I'm a good listener and a compassionate person. I have nothing more to prove except my friendship and loyalty. In my off time I like to spend time on the grill, read a good book and chill outside.

I love reading (especially the Bible), hanging out with my kids and learning new technology. In my off time I enjoy watching good movies (classics,dramas & action/adventure). .Click here to listen to New Age World.

I'd like to meet fun and exciting people who are open minded and non-judgemental and have a love for God, life and other people of various backgrounds and cultures.
