            Life of Lahray

            Dear Ricky

            You are enough.

            That's right. YOU! You do have a place in the world. There is room for your interests. Your gifts are needed. Your perspective and opinions have value. Your quirks are unique and absolutely spectacular. You are not your clothes, your hair, or your body shape, even though they can be used as tools of expression and extensions of your personality. You are a magnificent soul burning with passion and purpose, looking for direction, people to love, a community in which you fit and pride to stand on.

            Dear Ricky

Furthermore, it is a message that impacts all of the staff as well as the students. Shamiel has a natural gift of relating to everyone he meets. He has taken his life experiences and formulated a powerful way to spread his positive message that instills inner strength and confidence in those he interacts with. It is easy to see that he truly believes in what he conveys to others. It has been over two weeks since Shamiel has been on our campus. I still have staff and students telling me that he was the best speaker we have ever had. Thank you, Shamiel.”
