Ladies and gentlemen of the class of '99

"WEAR SUNSCREEN!"
00:00:13
If I could offer you only one tip for the future,
"sunscreen" would be it.
00:00:21
The long-term benefits of sunscreen
have been proved by scientists,
00:00:26
whereas the rest of my advice has no basis
more reliable than my own meandering experience.
00:00:34
I will dispense this advice NOW!
00:00:39
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth.
00:00:44
You will not understand the power and beauty
of your youth until they've faded.
00:00:48
But trust me, in 20 years,
you'll look back at photos of yourself
00:00:53
and recall in a way you can't grasp now
00:00:56
how much possibility lay before you
and how fabulous you really looked.
00:01:01
You are not as fat as you imagine.
00:01:07
Don't worry about the future.
00:01:09
Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective
00:01:12
as trying to solve an algebra equation
by chewing bubble gum.
00:01:17
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things
00:01:20
that never crossed your worried mind,
00:01:23
The kind that blindsides you at 4 pm
00:01:26
on some idle Tuesday.
00:01:28
Do one thing every day that scares you.
00:01:34
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts.
00:01:36
Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.
00:01:41
Don't waste your time on jealousy.
00:01:44
Sometimes you're ahead,
sometimes you're behind.
00:01:48
The race is long and, in the end,
it's only with yourself.
00:01:55
Remember compliments you receive.
00:01:57
Forget the insults.
00:02:00
If you succeed in doing this,
tell me how.
00:02:03
Keep your old love letters.
00:02:05
Throw away your old bank statements.
00:02:11
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what
you want to do with your life.
00:02:14
The most interesting people I know
00:02:16
didn't know at 22 what they wanted
to do with their lives.
00:02:19
Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds
I know still don't.
00:02:24
Get plenty of calcium.
00:02:27
Be kind to your knees.
00:02:28
You'll miss them when they're gone.
00:02:31
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't.
00:02:34
Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't.
00:02:36
Maybe you'll divorce at 40.
00:02:39
Maybe you'll dance the funky chicken
on your 75th wedding anniversary.
00:02:43
Whatever you do,
00:02:44
don't congratulate yourself too much,
or berate yourself either.
00:02:48
Your choices are half chance.
00:02:51
So are everybody else's.
00:02:54
Enjoy your body.
Use it every way you can.
