    Dave,

     

    Hats off to you!  On this rainy day in Orlando, Florida, you have brightened things.

     

    Good luck with future public speaking gigs.

     

    Just remember, to treat yourself right and take care of yourself.

     

    The bible said "Love they neighbor as you love yourself," but it didn't mean instead of yourself. 

     

    I'm at a point right now where I'm working on doing things just for me.

     

    I suggest you do the same for yourself.

     

    A person can get burned out doing mental health advocacy 24/7.

     

    This isn't to dissuade you, just to give you a suggestion, because of course not only do you have a calling, but you have been chosen.

     

    Write in and let us know about your other presentations.

     

    Cheers,

    Chris
