Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?
Last September 2015, Warren Green of Atlanta, GA blessed me with his presence here at La Terraza Guest House. I like to call him Mr. Morehouse because his demeanor and presence truly represents the college’s mission statement. Morehouse College is a private all-male, liberal arts, historically black college located in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia. The mission of Morehouse College is to develop all men with disciplined minds who will lead lives of leadership and service.
After a few phone calls, Warran came to visit me here in Gracia, Costa Rica. I must say it was a joy simply being his hostess. Mr. Morehouse was fantastic and a lot of fun, he talked a lot about Morehouse College and what their future outlook is for the 21st-century wich is all beautiful and exciting. Now take note that you don’t have to be black to go to Morehouse. Their first white valedictorian was Joshua Packwood in 2008 who stated he now knows what it feels like to be a minority.
Sharing ideas with Warren and sharing the college forecast brought a sense of togetherness instead of the recent US revelations of separation.
Warren was so impressed with Costa Rica that he is now contemplating this location as being possibly one of the places he would like to retire. Appearance wise he looks very young to me, but sometimes retirement has nothing to do with how old you are, it’s simply how long do you want to work? My many years of social interaction has made me very perceptive, and I have a feeling that Warren aka Mr. Morhouse has accomplished quite a bit at this point.
Warren has two children, one daughter, and one son. Both of his daughters have graduated from universities, and his son is a rising community beacon of light coming up in the rear directly behind his Father. After all of these accomplishments and raising his children to be successes, I sure hope he chooses Costa Rica to enjoy the Pura Vida lifestyle. It was my pleasure to have Mr. Warren Green here with us.
Warren, I’m enjoying the Morehouse collegiate sportswear and am proud to wear it. You are truly an inspiration. Thank you for visiting me and for giving me much needed insight on our Historical Black Colleges and their American dreams for future accomplishments. As the kids say, “You do the damn thing Mr. Morehouse”, “You’re the bomb, so drop it like it’s HOT on all the young leaders coming up after you. Including the many young leaders here in Costa Rica”….. Pura Vida!
