Speech to Campbell High Year 10 Graduation...
I've re-written this speech 100 times this week... I struggled with what to tell you, what to impart... let's start with what I won't tell you. I won’t tell you what to do with your life. While the specifics are always interesting, there is never just one right path or option. I won’t tell you what your profession should be. What you choose to do in life is never a matter for anyone else to judge or dictate. I won’t tell you what your opinions should be. Where you end up philosophically is a matter for you and no one else. I won’t tell you what you should do, what you should think, what you should feel, how you should speak. I won’t tell you to have the next few years of your life figured out. I certainly didn’t at your age. I won’t tell you to go to university or not, to become a doctor or a mechanic, a teacher or a musician. I won’t tell you to travel the world or never leave this town. I won’t talk to you about obstacles in life,
