Bono Commencement speech
, "I worked my ass off for four years to be
addressed by a sock?" You have worked your ass
off for this. For four years you've been buying,
trading, and selling, everything you've got in
this marketplace of ideas. The intellectual
hustle. Your pockets are full, even if your
parents' are empty, and now you've got to figure
out what to spend it on.
  • I think that this was one of the best executed
    speeches I have ever heard.
  • I loved the analogy where he explains the
    fluidity of life, malleable can be hammered into
    shape. Using utensils like a degree to start to
    shape change. Explanations are necessary its what
    in your heart to achieve.
  • He indicates, where you come from, background,
    is not important. He was a rock star and look at
    him now.
  • Realize that the world is yours to alter, our
    generation is so power, we have to begin change.
    Life isn't a fixed path. The investment of school
    wasnt done for anyone but ones self. Regardless
    of who speaks at commencement bono, or Kermit the
    frog

Sing the melody line you hear in your own head,
remember, you don't owe anybody any explanations,
you don't owe your parents any explanations, you
don't owe your professors any explanations. You
know I used to think the future was solid or
fixed, something you inherited like an old
building that you move into when the previous
generation moves out or gets chased out. But
it's not. The future is not fixed, it's fluid.
You can build your own building, or hut or condo,
whatever this is the metaphor part of the speech
by the way.
