TRIBUTE TO SUBLIME
A HIGHER LEVEL TO BE ATTAINED
ME I'm gonna put it like this... my name is Mike Ray... born n raised on the outskirts of Chicago... after graduating from Warren High School in Gurnee, Illinois, I moved to New Jersey to go to a one year prep program (Blair Academy). I graduated, and shortly thereafter, I moved to New York to matriculate into West Point (aka--United States Miltary Academy--) with aspirations of becoming an Officer, a Scholar, and a Wrestler. After a one year stint there and compiling 3 d's, I decided to resign, with an Honerable discharge, from my appointment to the US Army. Soon after, I returned to Chicago and this is were I am currently living. Yet, life is a continious challenge filled with obsticles; however the true measures of a man is not how hard he falls, but how fast he gets up! Adversity may beat me down, but it will never keep me down... My belief is simple: "that you are what you make of yourself. Inherently, you posses the key to the door in which behind lies your fate." As for now, I reside in McHenry,IL with my beautiful wife Jenna and our daughter Taylor.
