the end of a long journey. It tells you and your families that you are now prepared
to begin another journey to achieve future goals.
It is my turn to thank you. I have learned from you and you have made me a
better person. I have learned during my time as Brock Chancellor that change only
happens when grassroots people like yourselves get involved, get engaged and
come together to demand change.
On your own path of life, you will encounter challenges and obstacles,
but if you respect advice from family, mentors and elders, together you can
overcome anything.
Sometimes we forget to thank those people closest to us. Do not forget about
these people who sacrificed and did everything for you to be where you are today.
