Here is a response from Eduardo, an 18 year old young man in Mexico, who read the life-saving tips from Australia and sent this message in appreciation:
[box] “Thank you for sharing your life-saving tips with me. The story that most called my attention was the one from the boy who loves so much to practise a sport, that when he is in the field it is like all his problems disappear.
I happen to feel the same. When I’m on the soccer field, sometimes it is like the crowd, the other players, and even my own team partners disappear … there is only the ball and me, my heart beat, my steps, my breathing and the strength I use to apply to my kick. I also identified with the story about the boy who needs to balance the past and the future.
At this point of my life, I need to think a lot about my future, but this can be scary, especially because I am afraid I might make bad decisions again. Your stories remind me to look at the past in order to find the courage I need for the future. I hope I am able to find what I want to do when I am older, because if I do, I will be able to take the right decisions that lead me to my dreams. Your life-saving tips have reminded me to look to the past to find courage for the future. Thanks.”[/box]
