Mayor John F. Street

Today my group and I went to a presentation where the former Mayor John F. Street talked to us and gave us some tools that will help us in life. As I listened to Mayor Street talk I really started to think about my future and where I wanted to go and do and how I was going to get there. Mayor Street also played a game that had me really thinking. The game was where he pulled your name out of the hat and he gave you a special prize. But it was the meaning of the game that caught my attention. The meaning of the game was based upon luck and he began to tell us don’t depend on luck in your future. Luck is not always dependable. The last words that Mayor Street said was “A woman or man who stops to throw a stone at every barking dog will never reach their destination” this is something that I will always remember. I really enjoyed hearing Mayor John F. Street speak today and I will remember everything that he said and will try to apply it to my future.
