The Chesley Sullenberger (“Captain Sully”) Story

 

Have you ever wished you could travel through time? Where would you go? Back to early America with the founding fathers of our country? Maybe you would want to go back the beginning of human civilization! Or maybe…you would want to go forward! And see the YOU of the FUTURE!! To see what kind of person you turned out to be!

You know, a lot of adults out there wish they could go back just a few years. Back to a time when they were fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, or seventeen years old. They wish they could go back and give themselves some good advice about the choices they were about to make at that age. Choices that took them on a path to a future that wasn’t good.

Listen, get serious about preparing yourself through solid education and good choices about health, work ethic, and relationships. When you get to your future, you can’t go back. We all have to live with the lives we make for ourselves.
