I know you may never read this or lay your eyes apon the word I'm about to write but i feet like so who I should say them. Its so I guess you can say inspiring to hear that you have stage fright. I personally have HORRIBLE stage fright to the point of shaking like a Chihuahua in a blizzard and to hear you say that you have stage fright and yet you still go and speak what should be herd is amazing - Samantha age 13 ^-^ and Thank you for being a inspiring role model. thank you. thank you so much.

While listening to spoken word I'm often reminded of Lutheran school When the pastor used A bit of cloth To better explain the formlessness Before the world
