Guest Speaker, Blake Jones was always too this or too that; he was never “just right” in society’s eyes. Once he chose to get right with himself, Blake’s life started to become rather lonely….because let’s face it, society is a tough critic and Blake definitely has always gone against the grain. Younger blake was often quite confused why so many people tormented and teased him.
