“Fork in the Road” Transcript
Inspirational speaker Liz Murray once said, “A fork in the road happens over a hundred times a
day, and the choices you make will determine the shape of your life.” At one point or another,
we all come to that fork in the road, when we are forced to choose between two paths, not sure
where either will lead. Our classmate Bethany is at that point, forced to decide between her two
passions: art and medicine.
From an early age, Bethany has been passionate about art. She has been drawing since the age
of three and has continued to improve her skills ever since. Over the years, she has won many
awards for her drawings, including the Wisconsin Scholastic Art Award. Bethany draws people,
places, and things that she sees on a daily basis in the world around her. Drawing allows her to
relax and to escape from the stress of life. And now, because of her passion, she is considering
making art her career.
