Last week, I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting a boxing legend, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter.
Dr. Carter gave an amazing motivational speech about the power of believing in your dreams and the power of living your life.
Hurricane Carter was wrongly convicted of three counts of racial murders in the 60's and spent 22 years in jail for a crime that he did not commit. It is only with hope and dedication that Dr. Carter is a free man today. His speech was so inspirational, many in the audience were in tears by the time he finished speaking, myself included. It was such a wonderful experience to be able to meet an talk to Dr. Carter, that I will always remember.
