Good Evening, Fellow Toastmasters! This speech was delivered July 13, 2017, I was once told I could never live on my own, I was "dangerous," and that I would be forced into a state mental facility for a long time. If anyone ever tells you that, just laugh and walk away. THERE ARE NO HOPELESS CASES. This is Competent Communicator Speech #10 for me, and I am proud to say I am the first in my club to earn this prestigious award.
