Thought provoking graduation speech
 
Someone in my book club sent this around. It's a bit long, but well worth sharing: http://6thfloor.blogs.nytimes.com/20...aduates/?_r=1&

What a great speech! It reminded me of another graduation speech I read by Author Roger Summers, titled "What every graduate needs to hear when college ends, and none of them will". It is a great, thought provoking article, a must read!

I read that he's turning his speech into a book. He's got a good start!
