While we are on the topic of mental health advocacy, I wanted to share the meaningful e-mail I received from Randy, the compassionate guy who made a video of my “dream,” described on the post, “I, Too, Have a Dream.” I had no idea the dream of mine had traveled outside of the US! He wrote:

I thought you may be interested in where your words have gone.
Here’s your statistics:

Countries: United States, Ghana, Kenya, Saint Lucia, Canada, Phillippines, Bangladesh, Australia, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Pakistan

Gender: 67% Female 33%Male – Currently more Males are watching

Age Ranges: 45-54 49% 55-65 34% 33-44 8%
However, you have been listened to by people the age of 13 – 65+

One person, such as yourself, CAN and have changed the world.

I can’t wait for the next person to bring me another powerful blog.

The compassionate guy,

Randy
