A big Thank You! to Food for Thought for bringing us Dr. Grandin. There are very few people in our industry who have her "presence" and can command audiences' attention the way Temple Grandin can. The depth of her thinking, her years of hard work and experience; and the obvious level of respect she has for livestock, livestock producers and consumers serves to make her a true voice of reason in an emotion-laden segment of modern agriculture.
ReplyDeleteHer personal challenges in life, and the way in which she has succeeded in overcoming them in the face of resistance from all sides, is truly remarkable and admirable. We can all look to her example of just resolving to "do stuff", rather than wallowing in self-pity and self-doubt is how we can personally, and as an industry, can be successful in our modern world.
