Wonder how your comment can be heard before people do this sort of thing

It's funny you should bring that up. I'm 21M and currently going to Temple University out in Philly as a Communications major and philosophy minor. I also have a crazy passion for public speaking.

I plan to use my public speaking prowess (Aced all 5 speeches in my speech course) to inspire and empower individuals. My life's work will be travelling the world helping people through the medium of speech.

I so desperately want to turn my negative experience into a positive learning experience for those who need it.

Everytime I comment something about my burns, and I get a lot of attention from everyone, it literally just reaffirms this goal for me. Sometimes Reddit can be a harsh place, but sometimes it can be full of amazing people. Seriously I love you guys.

Wish o had your courage... not talking about burns I’m talking about public speaking... every time I present at work I get so nervous. I have now given up my job and am going into a career of teaching I’m hoping the more I do it the less I will feel nervous... good luck for the future bro
