Michael Folkes showed me that no matter how bad my past was, I have the power to make my life better; and I have. Thank you.

Michael's speech made me realize that even in the toughest times you need to look forward because if you work hard enough you can get anywhere in life. The experience has showed me that if I put in the time and effort into something I want to achieve I can achieve it.
