As it is


Mindy Kaling's commencement speech at Harvard Law School Class Day 2014 is basically what I really want to hear at my own graduation--which happened some time ago--and went nothing quiet like it. This speech basically reminds us how really important it is to be educated; to be smart; to be acknowledged by the world for the qualities that we basically had to work on, rather than blessed with. I found this speech to be quiet moving, and it's always refreshing to hear someone who could tell it as it is, had the talent of insulting people without being offensive, and all that was done by a woman who is so confident of herself--and that's because she's so damn smart and sure about what she's capable of.
