Ceremonial Speech: End of the Millennium, and the Beginning of a New One!

! Dear Friends and Speech class companions

I am here to talk to you today about something inevitable, something to look forward to and seemingly menacing at the same time: Dec, 31, of 1999, the end of the old millennium and, not to forget, the beginning of a new one.

To figure out what we can expect of each other and ourselves, we must not forget the links to our pasts. This past millennium has brought just as many frightening as brilliant perspectives to human kind. One must live in faith that this balance will neither shift nor break in the imminent next 1,000 years to come. So let us not be worried, but instead keep the good faith in nature; earth has been through a lot in the last 340 billion years. Recall the ice age, Stone Age, Bronze Age, inquisition, industrial revolution, two World Wars, the man on the moon, and the mass production of teletubbies. So let?s not frown what might, could or should happen. Let?s live life like it?s the last day everyday.

Just like R.E.M. keeps on singing, ? this is the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.?
