This spring thousands of graduates coming out of the high schools and colleges across the South will be hearing a similar message:
Go far! Dream big! Succeed! Break the mold!
But we hope they will not listen to it. We hope they will do the opposite:
Stay home, dream small, be content, be unknown.
The duty of the young is not to be trailblazers, to turn the world upside-down with new discoveries, etc. It is rather to do their part, unnoticed, to uphold and strengthen the tradition they were born into.
And which tradition is that? And which tradition is that? The American tradition? By no means!
