And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.
And I've looked over.
And I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you.
But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.

And most important, have the courage
to follow your heart and intuition.

Everything else is secondary.
