When trying to find this monologue, I knew that I was trying to find something that was meaningful to not only me, but everyone else. When I saw the Blind Side come up, I knew that I had to do something from the movie, because as a teenager, that is by far the most inspirational movie and had an impact on my personality towards sports and adults as a teenager. Finding a quote that was in the Blind Side wasn't hard, the only hard part was trying to find which one to choose because they all have a special meaning to them, from playing on the field to connecting as a family on and off the field.
I chose this monologue on courage and honor, because to me that was the best one towards teenagers and how life should be lived as a teenager. When reading it over, Michael said it perfectly even though his English wasn't the best. He stated that everyone should have courage and honor in their hearts and if they do, then that's pretty good. Even though his speech isn't perfect English, deep down, that should mean something to teenagers. I aim this mainly towards teenagers because as a teenager, I sometimes lack those aspects in life, and to be able to succeed in life, you should aways have those aspects in your life, no matter how rough it is.
While rehearsing this, memorizing it was tricky as it got to the end, so it took longer than expected. The beginning was easy to memorize, because I felt like it repeated itself, so I just had to remember what came next and after. Towards the end it was hard to memorize because I felt like he just put random stuff together to get it all in, and plus his English wasn't too good, so I had to change his words around and put in words that weren't included.
