This talk will tell you how to be the one that is remembered!

Reasons to be Cheerful

“ The future looks fantastic. Distrust anyone who tells you it doesn’t. Every day we are told the world is a vale of tears, where people don’t care for one another . If you ever think that the case, put on Muddy Waters . Loud. Or read a page of Roddy Doyle. Or look at Monty Python. You’ll see that the world is gleaming and that the best is always yet to come.”

Joseph O’Connor Author
