We are the result of my father’s third marriage, the only offspring he is aware of. He has been married seven times to date, the latest one has been the longest lasting, their twentieth anniversary was a few days ago.

Well this included striking me out of the picture as I was a troubled young lad. But let’s go back to the beginning of my life, the beginning of this story. I was born Sunday November 09 of the year 1980 to George Adam Stover, III and Dawn Marie Stover (Adams) in the wonderful town of Baltimore that’s located in the state of Maryland at Saint Josephs Hospital. My father was a feature photographer for WMAR Channel 2, where I spent a good portion of my time at playing on the editing room floor and

    "Are you ready? We leave in 20 minutes", says Maurice, my stepmom. She's been with our family for 7 years, ever since my mom and dad had a divorce. When I was 13 my dad told me that financial complications was the reason why they split, but somehow I feel like it was me. I felt like I was the root of all the complications, although I have a sister named Dianne who's a year older, who is another person to put the blame on, but still, I think…

    I fell in love with it immediately. It was all I ever wanted to do. Dance gave a place to just be me. I made lifelong friends and learned life lessons. Dance taught me discipline, drive and focus. While I on the competitive team, my parents would remind me that school came first. During Stage 3, we experience the desire to copy the adults around us. (Erikson, 1950) My sister, Jen, is 7 years older than me. She may not have been an adult, but I looked up to her like an adult. She was in dance, so I wanted to dance too. I happened to love it more than she did and continue with longer than…

    The knowledge that I have today would have been very useful in my past choices and decisions. I am, by no means, saying that I would change everything, as a few of the questionable decisions have defined me.

I will explain how key individuals and experiences have contributed to my outlook on adult learning and that these same influences still are at work nudging me along into my future plans and goals.…
