Chris Herren
Chris Herren visited my school last school year and I'm honestly not sure if I spelled his name right. My reaction to his story is kind of blasé. His speech wasn't inspirational to me nor did it make me depressed. I had a few girls around me crying about his story, but I feel detached to his situation. He had everything and he basically gives it all up for drugs. I'm not angry or disappointed about what he did either. I mean, he's only human. We make mistakes, whether we like it or not. It is just that his mistakes affected more than just him. It affected his wife, his kids, his parents, even things like money and his chance at fame. It was his own mistakes that led him to dragging his family down with him. At least he, unlike many other people, is trying to correct his mistakes and stop people from making the same mistakes as him. I feel that there is a close to zero percent chance of me ever using drugs, so I feel that the speech and story he told doesn't really relate to me. That would certainly explain why I don't feel a strong emotion to his speech, unlike many other people I know.
meeting Chris Herren was a life changing experience.
hearing him talk made me realize I did everything I could to save my friend's life, and I still saved her no matter how long it took. he made me finally forgive myself after a year
and when I told him that he just grinned from ear to ear and said "well I'm glad I could do that. You look like a great person, stay that way"
just like that I finally forgave myself for what happened to my friend. I realized it wasn't my fault and I can just be myself and people will like me.
Chris Herren made me realize to never deal with people who do stupid things.
