Life has a way of weighing us down, we want to live a life full of joy and success but the problems we come across in life, be it financially, academically or socially often leads to hopelessness but I am here to tell you that you can overcome. Everyone has a dream, and your dream is the one that will drive you when you in despair and you feel like you will not make it through the year. Your dream affects the way you talk, think and the way in which you live.
George Bernard Shaw (1949, p465) once said, “Dream of things that were never there and ask yourself why not?”. Do not let your present situation limit your capabilities, whatever is on your report card right now does not mean you cannot but it is a motivation for you to press on even more harder. One way to get to your goal is to never stop going. Surround yourself with people who have dreams because you will get fed of the crumbles of their

  • Commencement Speech Kenyon College Analysis

    869 Words  | 4 Pages

    Throughout reading “Commencement Speech, Kenyon College”, I found this short story very inspiring to read as I found myself doing more research for this essay because I was so interested in it. Wallace was very reluctant to give this speech because he wasn’t sure he was ready to talk in front of 400 graduates and what if what he had to say was ordinary not something that would stick with all these students the rest of their lives. Reading this speech through the first time the tone particularly stuck out to me, a direct yet casualness in the way he made his argument really made this go from ordinary to extraordinary. Starting off with water and ending with water tied the essay into one big loop with many messages within it but a central message central the main idea water. Water comes within many forms like ice, evaporation, solid liquid, colored or even clear and so many more.

  • Graduation Speech: Marching Band

    576 Words  | 3 Pages

    Marching band; copious amounts of people scoff at the sound of those words. I often hear students commenting on how easy marching band is, how we don’t train like the football players do. At Anderson High School, that’s not the case, the marching band trains for just as long. As a band of over 125 individuals, it takes determination, pride, and confidence to achieve the goals we have set forth to accomplish. As a leader of the saxophone section, I know what it’s like to face failure, to overcome and turn it into success and to march on with confidence.

  • Homecoming Pep Rally Speech

    263 Words  | 2 Pages

    The atmosphere of Schoenfeld Campus Gym had been electrifying Thursday afternoon. The Fall Homecoming Pep Rally included numerous activities for Concordia’s sports team to partake in. For example, one “challenge” involved a member of the sports team getting wrapped up in toilet paper, under the pressure of a time clock. When time ran out, whichever individual was wrapped in the most toilet paper (or looked the most like they had just emerged from an Egyptian pyramid) won that game. The CCNY Pep Rally acted as an opportunity for the rest of the student body to become familiar with our famed athletic program, and to mingle with this elite status of the student.

    To All Veterans; To those that have served, from the birth of our great nation to our infinite future. To those that thought more of the lives of others more so than of their own lives.

    To dream is to desire an achievement which seems unobtainable. Most everyone has trouble convincing themselves that their dreams are within reach. Jim Carrey once said, “So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality.” This is a result of allowing dreams to remain dreams and, instead, opting to take a more reliable path. In doing so, a sense of emptiness that never completely dies out is often developed.
