“The track is your life. Every time you achieve something you pass the baton to the next person. Guess who you are passing the baton to? It’s you. Each stage of your life you are passing it to a new you. It’s not the end of the line for you, but it’s a new you in our beautiful world.”Jason Backes, Principal of Transition Plus, said that he wasn't the least bit surprised to hear the wise words Ahmed wrote himself to impart to his classmates on graduation day. “He was chosen by the graduation committee to give the commencement address because of his growth while at Transition Plus in so many areas and his leadership skills," Jason stated.
"Ahmed is just an amazing young man who has really captured the hearts of everyone he has come into contact with. When he came to us we just knew that he had something special… he’s a very intelligent young man who we believe didn’t have a chance to have a voice in the past."This is one of the most important technological advances we can think of for people like Ahmed! This technology does indeed give a voice to the voiceless, removing the disability and allowing the true strength of the human mind to really shine. We're so glad we got to hear Ahmed's words of wisdom, and we're certain this isn't the last we'll hear from this remarkable young man. Share if Ahmed's graduation speech inspired you!
