THANK YOU
Leaders are called to stand
In that lonely place
Between the no longer and the not yet
And intentionally make decisions
That will bind, forge, move
And create history.
We are not called to be popular,
We are not called to be safe,
We are not called to follow.
We are the ones called to take risks,
We are the ones called to change attitudes;
To risk displeasures,
We are the ones called to gamble our lives
For a better world.
House of Delegates Address
