inspired and healing

I just read your chapters on effective speaking and thank you from the bottom of my heart for the inspiration. I have a speech to make in 2 days, already thought out and prepared to be read at a memorial service for a veteran killed in Viet Nam. That man was my fiance. 34 years later I have reopend a wound never healed but sorely festering. The time for healing is now. I have never been comfortable speaking in public but want to honor my first love with my memories of him. I keep thinking of Courage... Being afraid and doing it anyway. That is what he was an example of. I know I will honor his memory on Tuesday.

Thank you, I am a student of Yoga and needed reminding of my spirit having this human experience.
