Laugh, Think, Cry


“To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. Number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you’re going to have something special.”

-       Jim Valvano, ESPYs speech 1993

 
Jim Valvano was dying of cancer when he gave this speech.  If you have never heard this speech you need to.  (Easy to find on You Tube)  His words of wisdom make up one of the most moving speeches of all time.  It is powerful, motivating, passionate and emotional.  What if we all really experience all there of things daily?  He is right we would have something special. 

 
Laugh, think and cry today…
