I'm disappointed in my inability to write a speech with the cache and poetry of, say, "I have a dream." Alas, my efforts are just so-so, or somewhere in that vicinity. Of course, current life events surrounding our law school and community do not demand a call-to-arms, or profound consideration of deep things, and five minutes isn't very long to develop any kind of theme in any case.
So I'll have to be satisfied if I deliver the chosen words with poise and appropriate timing, and if my classmates feel I've adequately expressed our collective voice.
I'll relax and start enjoying graduation about the time I'm two sentences into the delivery. It'll all be downhill from there.
