I was honored to give the commencement address today at the @UofMichigan Graduation, but I’ll be honest, I was fearful. Fearful that I wouldn’t have anything to say, fearful that they wouldn’t care about what I had to say, & fearful that they would rather hear from someone else.
But after @CoachJim4UM, @MarySueColeman, & my kids all talked some sense into me, I realized I was hiding behind my fears. In fact, those fears are an illusion, & I do have something to say. We all have something to say & do. #classof2022
We are all here to live our own wildly authentic lives. And it's our authenticity, our determination, our creativity, & our imagination that our society needs most at this uncertain time. Let’s step outside our fears & start living! #classof2022
To read the rest of my speech, make sure you subscribe to tomorrow’s #thesundaypaper in my link in bio, & of course, #GoBlue! 💙💛 Image
