Speech:
Life isn't simple. It's complicated.
We're all just thrown in here together...
...in a world full of chaos and confusion.
A world full of questions and no answers.
With Death always lingering around the corner.
And we do our best.

We can't always do our best.
My dad did it best.
He always tried to tell me you have to go for what you want in life.
because you never know how long you're gonna be here.
And whether you succeed or you fail, the most important thing is to have tried.
A parent can only drive you in the right direction. In the end though...
...you've got to run for yourself. You have to grow up yoursekf.
So when you leave today, I'd like you to remember my father for what he really was.
A decent and loving man.
If only we could be as giving and generous and understanding as my father was.
Then the world would be a far better place.
