Absolutely. And that's one thing that I think I got tagged in on for legislative day is like, can you help people tell their story? Because I have been able to create mine or put mine forward in a more punchy way of this happened. I wasn't happy about it. Here's what I did. And that's a big battle of you need to hear a group of people.

Because like you said, if it's just one off or two off, legislators are going to blow that off and think that you're an outlier. But it's not the case at all. We're a silent majority. It's just something that the media doesn't cover.

My goals. I tag into a lot of projects and a lot of people reach out to me in terms of criminal justice. I have a very big heart for it. And I'd had the most wonderful compliment last week of somebody said, you have the heart for this and you need that to be successful. So I plan on advocating more. I don't know that I'll ever run for office. I don't think I would want to do that.

But I definitely want to help people survive the trenches and build them up so they don't feel alone because that does happen a lot. And then also, I really want to see more legislation on criminal justice mental health reforms and especially autism reform because there is... I think we're at a fever pitch right now where not just...

That's the painful part. And especially when you're sitting in the middle of the system and you have a loved one that's on that other side, that's where it starts to really be like, oh, this is going so slow. But I find that if you have something healthy to focus on and something to work toward, it makes that weight a little bit better because...

Yeah. So some of the more creative things I've done is I've always had a knack for like web design and development. So I've created websites. I've done change.org petitions. A lot of people do those, but they don't always get attention. You have to make sure that you're writing it well, that you're designing graphics for it.
