Graduation Speech Thanks For Contacting Me - 1018 Words

Thanks for contacting me. I have been listening to Alex’s podcasts for years, but I really only joined this forum a month ago.

It hurts when we hit our heads, we have physical needs as well as emotional ones etc. If one person has figured out how to make one aspect of our existence a bit better, it’s worth listening to them. If what they say resonates on some level, great, otherwise let’s move on to something more interesting. I guess I have spent many years developing my mind.
