Arnetta's next journey
Who is this lady, Arnetta Knight?
She is a mother to many, wife, and Entrepreneur, mentor, a trailblazer, ex-truck driver, and a good friend to the needy and downtrodden, an ex-real estate mortgage person and student. What’s next for this Renaissance woman? Well…
Arnetta Verne' Knight is going to school to be an L.P.C. (License Professional Counselor for mental health) at Amberton University. I knew before she said it, she and her daughter would both be mental health counselors. They both are attending Amberton University.
Arnetta has two degrees from Cedar Valley College, one is an Associate in Science and the other one is an Associate in Real Estate. In 2016, due to Arnetta working on her book, she is hoping to complete her degrees. I asked Arnetta, why didn’t you graduate in 2015 with just one of those degree? This great woman of vision told me, she wants to have them both handed to her at the same time. What a woman!
Arnetta's bachelor's degree is a Bachelor of Science Human Relations and Business. She also stated to me that within the next 2 years she might have completed her Masters degree, since she will be working on her book and working on her Podcast.
You know after meeting Arnetta, I know she will do just that! Why not, she’s a Renaissance woman.
Oh, her daughter is a writer and a jewelry maker. I purchased one of her pretty pieces. One day her daughter is going to be in a magazine. She is a great lady who’s just like her mother and grandparents, Renaissance women all the way.
Arnetta said that going back to school wasn’t a cat walk. She talked a lot about her professors who helped her along the way on this school journey, as she called it.
Arnetta told me that her English professor is her favorite teacher at Cedar Valley College. Mrs. JC. Arnetta told me with a smile on her face, that once she starts her practice she’s going to get a Chinese charm to initiate the start and end of her client’s session, like her English professor, Mrs. JC.
I asked Arnetta to tell me about how well did she did in Cedar Valley College and Amberton University? She said with pride that her grade point average was 4.0. She proudly showed me her transcript. Wow! She’s so smart!
Arnetta told me that while in New York, school wasn’t important to her, even though she completed some of her college credits at Queensborough Community College with some Bs. She said “I didn’t have my daughter with me.” She said that her Queensborough Comm. College psychology professor gave her a B and told her if she would’ve came to the class more often she would have received an A. Arnetta feels that maturity and life experiences has made her want an education, more.
As a spiritual person Arnetta comes across as very religious. Arnetta is someone that has so much to offer. I wouldn't be surprised if she does become a preacher in a church one day. After all she told me that her grandfather on her father’s side was a minister, her half brother and her first husband’s father was a minister, too. Her father in-law told her many times, “Daughter you could be a great minister.” She said her first husband’s mother is still alive. They speak all the time. She sends her all her grades each semester. When Arnetta went home to New York to visit she was told by her mother-law’s friends that she talks about Arnetta all time.
Arnetta showed me all of her awards. She was on the Who’s Who of students in American Universities and Colleges, twice in a row for two years. She received from Cedar Valley Community College recognition and a certification for having an excellent academic record. She was placed on the Vice President’s Honor roll for year 2011 and 2012. Wow, she had a grade point average around 3.5. I didn’t do that in college. You go, girl!
Arnetta showed me many letters written about her great character. One I took note to was the one that was written by one of her professors “There are some people we meet who strike us from the first time as “Special”. Arnetta is one of those rare individuals.” It went on to say, “Her zest and enthusiasm for life are contagious.” Wow, that fits Arnetta to a tee! She is very special!
Arnetta is someone that stands for what she means. We need more like her. She doesn’t have a pretentious bone in her body. Arnetta is a caring and giving person who is willing to help with those in need.
The world would be a better place with more Arnettas! Don’t you think?
