When I had to write my valedictorian speech for my high school graduation, I knew I wanted to inspire and move people, but I didn't know what to say. I needed inspiration, so, I went to the internet. I watched a number of Youtube videos, but I wanted my speech to be something nobody has heard before. Weeks came and went, and it was the weekend before graduation, and i had nothing. I needed to come up with something and I needed to come up with something fast. I wrote down some ideas, but nothing felt right.
When I was trying to get some creative juices flowing, I put music on to calm my nerves. The song "Trust in You", by Lauren Daigle came on, and it instantly inspired me. There's is a line in the song that says, "Truth is you know what tomorrow brings, theres not a day ahead you have not seen." Those word really moved me, and I related to them. I was about to embark on a new journey. A new chapter in my life. I knew that this new adventure was going to have its ups and downs, but I knew that God knows my future, and that I needed to put my full Trust in Him. This song means so much to me, because it helped me realize that I needed to trust Go more in my life. I ended my speech with the line from the song "I want what you want Lord and nothing less". This tells me that I should live my life, never settle for second best, and always aim high.
