#10 - Marc's Story (Chapter 2 - Me to We)

I thought that Marc's story was also inspirational. I thought that Marc's story was told in a way that many people could feel passionate about. Although Marc faced many of life challenges, one being a working student, he tells us to work through it, take the path that we feel is right, and work even past the end of the tunnel.
Marc came close to reaching failure. He was able to acknowledge the fact that failure was right infront of him, but was able to make a change and make the first turn onto a new road. Although he wanted to give up, and run back home, Marc decided to take another shot at life in Thailand, and was inspired by a young, poor 'steet child' to keep on going. If this boy had not have encouraged Marc to stay in Thailand, then Marc would have failed.
I think Marcs story is easy to relate to or look at with our own life, because we all come to a crossroad serveral times in our life where failure is up ahead, or a chance for opportunity is on the next road. Marc took made a turn/change towards something he felt was right.
I thought Marcs story was inspiring because it teachers us to reach out further then we thought we could, and to make your own decisions, but allow others to influence and inspire you for the better.
"What kind of legacy do you want to leave"...
