Greeting class of 2016; we did it. I would like to congratulate the School of Mayfield Secondary School on graduating. We reached here a short four years‚ now it’s time to leave. Seems like yesterday we were all shy little 14 year old’s walking into a huge school‚ trying to figure out where our class was located. It was terrifying walking into a school filled with people so much taller and older than us‚ and the Grade 12s; I didn’t even want to look at them without thinking we would get bullied.

I find myself to be a very photogenic person. Birthday parties‚ vacations and other special events are all recorded in photographs in my room. One specific picture hanging up on my wall‚ is forever engraved in my mind. I often catch a glimpse of it in the evenings when I come home. I grab it‚ lay on my bed and go back to the best night of my life. The image in the 4x7 thick rectangular photograph was a moment captured by my father. Later on he told me that he had never seen me that happy‚ ever!

On May 12‚ 1962 General MacArthur gave his farewell speech after receiving his honorable medal (MacArthur‚ 1962). His farewell speech impacted the lives of many‚ making it one of the best speeches in American history in my opinion.

-Anecdotal Hook Our dollar bills have the quote of “in God we trust” and our Pledge of Allegiance has “one nation under God”. The Supreme Court now has a new judge who has strictly made decision based on his faith. Their faiths may not be the same as you and I profess.

Babe Ruth’s Farewell to Baseball speech was delivered on April 27th 1947 at the Yankee Stadium in New York. Babe Ruth at the time was 52 years old and dying of throat cancer‚ his speech was directed towards his dedicated fans. He wanted to thank everyone for their kind words throughout the years and he knew he wasn’t going to be around much longer. He began by speaking about how horrible his course voice sounded and how it felt just as bad. That statement I’m not quite sure if it could be construed

He states that liberal education teaches one‚ not how to think (as most believe)‚ but rather teaches one the ability to choose how we want to think
