Passage Two
Patricia Pania never wanted to be a national public figure.
All she wanted to be was a mother and a homemaker.
But her life was turned upside down when a motorist,
distracted by his cell phone,
ran a stop sign and crashed into the side of her car.
The impact killed her two-year-old daughter.
Four months later,
Pania reluctantly but courageously decided to
try to educate the public and to fight for laws to
ban drivers from using cell phones while a car is moving.
She wanted to save other children
from what happened to her daughter.
In her first speech, Pania got off to a shaky start.
She was visibly trembling
and her voice was soft and uncertain.
But as she got into her speech,
a dramatic transformation took place.
She stopped shaking and spoke with a strong voice.
For the rest of her talk,
she was a forceful and compelling speaker.
She wanted everyone in the audience to know
what she knew without having to learn it
from a personal tragedy.
Many in the audience were moved to tears, and to action.
