While I don’t necessarily agree with this guys teaching style or outlook; that he was able to inspire you is really cool! I had a similar situation. Without getting into details, I was lucky enough to run into the guy who had inspired me on the streets around a year ago and thank him face to face, it was an awesome day!

Wow, to think that one person can make such a drastic and positive change in someone’s life like that is just amazing. I remember you telling me a few times before about how you used to be unconfident and shy but when I read the line about you not even going and ordering things from a counter, I gotta say that actually shocked me. That’s not the independent Jess I know. :P
This guy sounds like a really great guy, and hearing the way you describe him I’m sure he’s still inspiring people wherever he may be.
You should defiantly try and contract him, I’m sure he would love to hear from you. I know that if I ever had that sort of effect on someone’s life (not gonna happen, I know :P) I would feel so absolutely great to think that this persons life is better because of something I did.

You’ve told me so many of these things in bits and pieces over the years, it was really fantastic to see you put it all down in words, as well as hear all the new details. I think you should try to get in touch with him, or at least send him an email! Email is the ultimate contact medium of the tentative or the unsure.

That was good, really well written. You should maybe see if you can get in contact with him again, maybe through the school or Maquarie. Sounds like it’d be a good call/email.
