That out of fear, may come confidence. That out of hurry, may come deliberation. That out of frustration, may come guidance. Let us get to work, not head first, but heart first. May we be able to disagree without being disagreeable. To differ without being difficult. To be honest without tension. To be frank without offense in an atmosphere of team spirit. These things we ask in your son's name, Amen."
