You gave me hope, inspiration, and courage - and offered me all those things "until i could offer them to myself" - it was a huge wake up call for me. i have a picture of you and i that hangs on a mirror, and i purchased a set of cassette tapes that i still listen to all these years later. Just yesterday a friend was saying how she needed to have a talk with her child and i said " i heard this motivational speaker years ago and he said if you ever want to talk to your kids, take them for ice cream, an hour away" - laughs - and thats just what my friend and her child went and did and that talk they needed to have, happened. I am sure sometimes it appears we arent listening, not hearing, not getting it .. but it does stick in our heads and sometimes when we least expect it we hear your voice and go HEY i get what he was talking about now! Thank You for being the inspirational person you are and sharing it with the world!! ~ Alyxx lee, Northwest High School, Omaha NE class of 89 i saw you first speak in 1988, i was a senior in high school and you did more for me in weekend that anyone had done in my life.
