My friends remember my thread about the magazine taking my feedback and also the hospital asked me to be on the parent council board, well....
Today I was talking to Sarah's lawyer, and she told me she wanted to ask me something.
She ask me to talk to the student lawyers, let them see what my life is like, she wants the lawyers to not just have the legal aspect of a situation, but have a sense of reality, empathy for the clients.
This will be continous, for every new group of student lawyers.
Now, I will not just touch other's people lives through my motivational speaking from the hospital board, but with the new lawyers having a a different perception on difficult situations, their clients will benefit from the "real" understanding.
I just wanted to share this, because I am so happy.
PS:I will not be making money, from talking about my life.
that's pretty cool, it's great that you'll have the opportunity to touch so many lives... it's always nice to be able to do things like that. i've been working on a lot of the county and state government people with budgetting concerns and the servics that are available for children, because i live in a forgotton area of ohio.... it keeps me busy.... i hope that it goes really well for you

Thank you, I always like to know about people making a difference, I think it is wonderful that you will be able to help your side of the state
My motivational speaking had been on hold for many years, it has taken it's wings in the last two months, I guess I will be a very busy woman, but I really know there is a purpose, that will make a difference.

Thanks Kat...I find it amazing that my life is taking a different path, then the one I went to college for, I have angels giving me a lift, lol, and I do believe that, for I never intended for it to be like this.
Really, how many people get to talk about their life and use it as a teaching tool, I find it a blessing...but still strange.
you will be busy, but it's all worth it when you know you're making a difference... it's really nice because without that life seems a little sad... we all have something to offer to the world and it's good to do what we should...
Yes angel I understand somewhat. I also was given an opportunity to share my life experiences with others, to try and help teach. I was in training to be a drug and alcohol counselor. I spoke all around our tri state area to N.A. and A.A. groups. I also was privey to speak and take meetings to half way houses and treatment centers and prisons,(just lucky I wasn't in there myself).That was such an awesome gift in my life. I will always hold those experiences dear to my heart. You will be such an influence, I know it. Kat
Angel, Thats amazing..What a wonderful way to share your story and teach these kids something they may never have known otherwise..Good luck to you...Tell Sarah Im still praying for her and for you too hun..Best Wishes and Merry Christmas to you both Missy
