Ryan Neale is a regular teenage boy who just graduated middle
school and is heading to high school in the fall. He enjoys
playing basketball, guitar, and hanging out with his friends.
In his final year of middle school, Ryan battled depression and
feeling isolated and alone, but decided to reach out to his peers
for connection.
Ryan wrote a graduation speech based on what he learned, and, while
his speech was not the one chosen for his commencement ceremony, he
is sharing it here on Epic Exchanges.
