Congratulations, Serena. I am very happy that you are being honored for you work away from the tennis court. Continue to give of yourself, and continue to pursue the things in life that make you happy. I am very proud of you. Good luck tomorrow. God bless.

Congratulations, Serena I am very happy to hear that you are doing well I hope you keep up the good work. God Bless You

Congratulations Serena. All the best for Doha, and I am really looking forward to seeing you play again at the Season Ending Championships in Doha (to see the best 8 players), I would love it if the championships were in London, but nevermind, perhaps the WTA will bring them to London, especially if it's at Wimbledon, on grass, where both Venus and yourself shine. Anyway fingers crossed for you, and keep your head up and off course don't forget to relax and enjoy the tennis.

Congratulations Serena, on your selection for The Doha 21st Century Leaders Award for your humanitarian work outside of tennis. And on the opening of your school named after you, Serena Williams Secondary School. We look forward to the opening of your second school next year as well. A lot of people only think they know a person, because of what they see in the camera. I am proud of you for clearing up the type of person you are "outside of the lens." Education. , , knowledge is definately the key to a having a successful life. What one doesn't know can hurt them. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Congratulations, Serena, I am glad you are getting the recognition you deserve. I wish the very best for you, and success for all your goals. Through your schools you are changing the live of countless people by providing the means to give people the skills to make a difference for Africa; through your tennis you are inspiring many others, my self included, to live their dreams; and through your memorable moments you are entertaining us all. Don't change a thing, keep on being Serena! Luv you. ♥ ♥ ♥

Congratulations Serena on the Doha 21st Century Award. It's so great for you to get renegotiation for your work off the court with your foundation & the opening of your school in Africa. Good luck in Doha.

Congratulations Serena! Of course, the media and other tennis community haters will not acknowledge your positive, compassionate, and generous hard work that you have been doing for years. They will only broadcast misconstruing, negative information about you- keeping the truth hid from your fans as well as others. You obviously have a HEART OF GOLD and care dearly not only about your fans but others who are suffering. I have a lot of respect for you as a strong black woman. NOW GO KICK EVERYBODY A** IN DOHA (EXCEPT VENUS, that is a little more delicate situation).

Congrats Serena for being honored u deserve it, every word you wrote is the TRUTH........ Keep up the good work the kids need it good luck in DOHA....

Serena, you are so amazing. When good people like you understand how the world operates, and do something about it, then the scent of your presence is smelled every where. Words can not express your humanity works for the poor. Helping others and giving back is what makes you and quiet your enemies. The key to life is education through the eyes of GOD. Hope you and Venus do very well in Doha.

Serena, I did some research on Reflection and Image. I really love the way the FS put it. Although this written about those who would rule with Jesus in heaven, this can also relate to faithful ones who have the hope of living on a paradise earth. During their earthly life, they are priviledged to "reflect like mirrors the glory of Jehovah" that shines to them from God's Son, being progressively transformed into the image conveyed by that glory reflecting Son. (2 Cor. 3:18; 4:6) God thereby creates in them a new personality, one that is a reflection, or image of his own devine qualities. Ephesians 4:24; Col 3:10. I must say I had a time in clarifying this in my mind, until I read this point, which I believe is what you are saying totally. IMPROPER USE OF IMAGES. WHEREAS HUMANS ARE TO IMITATE AND ENDEAVOR TO MIRROR THE QUALITIES OF THEIR HEAVENLY FATHER AND MODEL THEIR LIVES AFTER HIS SON, THE VENERATION OF PHYSICAL IMAGES IN WORSHIP IS CONSISTENTLY CONDEMNED THROUGHOUT THE SCRIPTURES. GOD'S DESTESTATION OF SUCH PRACTICE WAS CLEARLY EXPRESSED IN THE LAW GIVEN TO ISRAEL. NOT ONLY CARVED IMAGES, BUT THE MAKING OF A "FORM" OF ANYTHING IN HEAVEN OR ON THE EARTH, OR IN THE SEA AS AN OBJECT OF WORSHIP WAS PROHITED. Ex 20:4,5; Lev. 26:1; Isa 42:8. I and your true fans can fully appreciate where you're coming from Serena. Thank you for me. Why? I defend you when there is a basis for it. I've observed you and Vee since you were small kids. Actually I've observed most of your family. Don't want nothing from you all, but to meet you some day. I was told by someone that I would regret speaking (writing) in your defense. I can't leave, not yet. The holy spirit won't allow me to. And until it does, I will continue to try to minister to you.

Congratulations Serena, Im sure you are very excited about this! You deserve it. Good luck this week and good luck opening your other school in Africa!

Hello Serena, just want to let you know to keep it up. Education really is the key. If a person never becomes a famous actor or athelic, they should always be able to turn back to their education and hopefully it'll be enough to pull them all the way though. So continue to do what you do. Good job!

Now Hold up Serena. I have to be very critical in my Analysis of the words dat be commin out of cho mouff. See See its like dis. Ok you say That you are HUMAN.

OH Oh oh man. oh my stomach OH MY STOMACH!!! ok now you say, Serena you say you STUDY. ok well if that is true, then give me the answer to this. -- Intergrate 6 to 4 and differenciate it and then find the Ryman sum and show all the steps. And do this shit fast cause this problem assignment was due yesterday and im trying to get some credit. ok ok. now Serena I have one more thing to say. This is very important. DAM you got some sexy legs in that blue dress. lets get freakeah freakeah!!??
