  6. The metaphors you used were amazingly powerful and it was so powerful how you connected the pain to physical things like war. It was so easy to connect to and relate to

  7. The way you worded things really made a huge impact on your speech. I know a lot of people who are going through some of the stuff your friend went through. I wish they could listen to your speech to realize that they aren't alone. You did really well(:

  8. You started with a personal story, and it was powerful. It's hard to tell stories like that.
    But, then, you turned your speech into something so positive! It was a good transition. And it was a good message. Good job.

  9. The point you made that we never hear the stories of survival really struck a chord with me. Your presentation was very poetic, and I can't tell you how meaningful it was to hear you talk about it because your passion was so obvious. What an amazing speech!
