-
3:42 - 3:44Thank you.
-
3:44 - 3:46Thank you so much.
-
3:46 - 3:48Got to catch my breath.
-
3:48 - 3:50I am out of shape but --
-
3:50 - 3:53I am going to play for you one more song tonight,
or this afternoon. -
3:53 - 3:55And this is a really meaningful song to me
-
3:55 - 3:59and I just wanted to tell you a little about
what it means to me. -
3:59 - 4:01This song is called "Transcendence."
-
4:01 - 4:04And I wrote it at the time of my life,
I was kind of, probably, -
4:04 - 4:05at the lowest point of my life.
-
4:05 - 4:07I didn't quite know who I was.
-
4:07 - 4:11And I was surprised at
the person that I thought I was finding. -
4:11 - 4:14And I wrote this song
and I called it "Transcendence" -
4:14 - 4:16because 'to transcend' means not just
-
4:16 - 4:19to get through something
or get passed something, -
4:19 - 4:22but it means to completely
overcome something -
4:22 - 4:24and become better for it.
-
4:24 - 4:29So in my own life I found that
during that time period -
4:29 - 4:34I found passion and I found that I was able
express myself through something I love. -
4:34 - 4:39And I really think that's kind of what saved me,
and helped me in that time of my life. -
4:39 - 4:41And I love being able to share it
with other people now -- -
4:41 - 4:43And just like it's been said
over and over again, -
4:43 - 4:46by finding passion and
by sharing with other people -
4:46 - 4:49we are able to work from the inside out.
-
4:49 - 4:50And that's how we find happiness.
-
4:50 - 4:53So I just want to encourage you all
to take what you've learned today -
4:53 - 4:56and to transcend.
-
