Today is the birthday of someone who meant a lot to me. You see I wasn't sure where I fit when I got to high school. The first semester I spent my time studying and being a good student. I was in my Ag classes and loved them and started to meet some wonderful people. By the second semester I was very involved in FFA competitions and teams. One of those wonderful people was kind enough to give me confidence in myself that I had never had. He told me that I could do it when I was scared to death to speak in public, he told me when I needed to suck it up and remember what we had practiced so many times.
