- I know we all think that we're immortal.
We're supposed to feel that way.
- We're graduating.
- But, like our brief four years in high school..
What makes life valuable
..is that it doesn't last forever.
- What make it precious is that it ends.
- And I say it. Today of all days..
to remind us that time is luck.
- So, don't waste it living someone else's life.
Make yours count for something.
Fight for what matters to you.
- Because even if we fall short..
..what batter way is there to live?

May:
- We did the bast we could, your uncle Ben and I.
- Who else was gonna care for you, and protect you and worry about you?
- Your father? No.
- I was the one who wiped your nose, made you brush your teeth.. and do your homework, or washed your dirty underwear. Me!
- Your stupid, non-scientific aunt, who doesn't know how to make ends meet..
who has to take nursing classes with 22-year-old kids
So that I can pay for you to go to college.
- And I don't know how to do this without Ben.
- And you're dreaming about your perfect father..
..who was never here? No.
- No, I won't tell you.
You're my boy.
- As far as I'm concerned, you're my boy.
And I won't hurt you.

May:
- You know, it's funny. I've been..
trying to clean up around here, get organized..
..and been putting some of Ben's stuff in boxes.
- And it's so funny, the heavier the box gets, the lighter I feel.
Peter:
- You're throwing his stuff away?
May:
- No.
- No. God, no.
- I couldn't do that. It's part of me.
I'm just finding..
a better place for it.
- I'm gonna take one last look..
..and I'm gonna put it where it belongs.

Gwen:
- It's easy to feel hopeful on a beautiful day like today.
But there will be dark days ahead of us too.
- There will be days where you feel all alone.
- And that's when hope is needed most.
- No matter how buried it gets..
or how lost you feel.
- You must promise me..
that you will hold on to hope.
-Keep it alive.
We have to be greater than what we suffer.
- My wish for you..
..is to become hope.
People need that.
- And even if we fail..
..what better way is there to live?
- As we look around here today.
At all of the people who helped make us who we are.
- I know it feels like we're saying goodbye.
- But we will carry a piece of each other..
into everything that we do next.
To remind us of who we are.
..and of who we're meant to be.
