"This being the Generation Award - they only gave me a couple of minutes so I’m gonna cut to the chase - and I’m gonna speak to you, the next generation. OK? I accept the responsibility as your elder, so listen up! This is what I call 9 Rules from Chris Pratt, Generation Award Winner:
Breathe. If you don’t, you’ll suffocate.
You have a soul, be careful with it.
Don’t be a turd. In the real world, it is illegal to slap people. Don’t take advantage of that fact. If you’re strong, be a protector; and if you’re smart, be a humble influencer. Strength and intelligence can be weapons, and do not wield them against the weak - that makes you a bully. Be bigger than that.
When giving a dog medicine, put the medicine in a little piece of hamburger - they won’t even know they’re eating medicine.
It doesn’t matter what it is – earn it. It feels good! 5 bucks earned is better than 10 bucks given to you, every time! If you feel like crap, look at your life; what do you have that you haven’t earned and do something about it. Do a good deed. Reach out to someone in pain. Be of service. It feels good and it’s good for your soul.
God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you, believe that – I do.
If you have to poop at a party but you’re embarrassed because you’re gunna stink up the bathroom, just do what I do. Lock the door. Sit down, get all the pee out first. OK? And then, once all the pee is done, poop, flush, boom! You minimize the amount of time that the poop is touching the air. Because if you poop first, it takes you longer to pee and then you’re peeing on top of it, stirring it up, the poop particles create a cloud, goes out, and then everyone in the party will know that you pooped. Just trust me, it’s science.
Learn to pray. It’s easy and it’s so good for your soul. You just close your eyes and list off people for which you are grateful and ask for protection for the people you love. You don’t ask God to win the big game or anything, you just ask for His strength and accept the outcome. Pray. Don’t be embarrassed by it. You let people see you do it. It’s good for their soul too.
Nobody is perfect. Nobody. None of us! People are going to tell you you’re perfect just the way you are. You’re not! You are imperfect, you always will be. But there is a powerful force that designed you that way and it loves you and accepts you for exactly who you are. It will forgive you for your flaws, no matter what they are. If you’re willing to accept that, you will have grace, and grace is a gift. And like the freedom that we enjoy in this country, that grace was paid for with somebody else’s blood. Do not forget it. Don’t take it for granted. It is a gift for which none of us are worthy, but do your best to earn it.
Be kind, don’t be a bully, be of service, and do not be a turd. God bless you. Please get home safely."
