I. Die.

We must carry this in our hearts. That what we have is special.
We are all vulnerable, and we will all, at some point in our lives… fall. We will all fall. We must carry this in our hearts… that what we have is special. That it can be taken from us, and when it is taken from us, we will be tested. We will be tested to our very souls. We will now all be tested. It is these times, it is this pain, that allows us to look inside ourselves.
One of the two things I miss the most are doing those speeches. The emotions would just overwhelm me. You get that little tingle, you know? I’d even get to rework them, and I’d talk to real-life coaches about what they’d say in the locker room. I loved it. It was like we were really going to play a game after them.
Give all of us gathered here tonight the strength to remember that life is so very fragile. We are all vulnerable, and we will all, at some point in our lives… fall. We will all fall. We must carry this in our hearts… that what we have is special. That it can be taken from us, and when it is taken from us, we will be tested. We will be tested to our very souls. We will now all be tested. It is these times, it is this pain, that allows us to look inside ourselves.
