Graduation Celebration Part Seven - What We Leave Behind

Songs & Stories From Home Episode 15

In this section I’m getting ready to receive my college degree 50 years after I might have graduated. I describe issues we were confronting half a century ago that we continue to deal with to this day. I talk about the many trail guides that were at our disposal as we were getting ready to race onto the stage. Now, whether we like it or not, we are preparing to exit that stage. We don’t have much more time to play a role in dealing with those issues or to finally answer some basic existential questions. Questions like: Who are we? What are we doing here? What will we leave behind when we’re gone? This video ends with a song called You Are The One. The chorus goes: Love is the question/love is the answer/love is the reason/and you are the one.
