Everybody is free (to wear sunscreen)

I stumbled upon this video and little did I know it was quite famous. The essay titled Everybody is free (to wear sunscreen) was originally written by Mary Schmich as a mock graduation speech for The Chicago Tribune in 1997. However, it rapidly gained popularity and even became a hit pop song. The message is nothing new, but it is sure to make you think.


Here are a few of my favorite phrases:

-"Do one thing every day that scares you."

-"Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft."
-"Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements."



Please watch and be inspired :)
