I wanna see you there.”I saw her — boy, I’m telling you, I couldn’t believe what I saw. It was definitely suicide. Somebody had to help her, somehow. And obviously she wasn’t going to the right people.I said to her, “I’m doing a convention two weeks from now in St. Louis.” And two weeks from then, in somewhere else, you know? She also came to New York - she was able to afford to got to these places. That went on for two or three years, maybe eighteen times. And all I did was talk positive things to her.And then all of the sudden — nothing. I didn’t hear anything. I had no idea what had happened to her because I never really saved her address.Eight years later, I get a letter saying, “I do want to thank you so much for what you did for me, because I just got my Master’s degree in electronic engineering.”That’s…to me, the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.”Something worth sharingALWAYS REBLOGGreat story, I hope that woman is doing well for herself.You never know who you could help.
