NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER: The adored Gilmore Girls actress, best-selling author of Talking as Fast as I Can, her memoir, and her book Someday, Someday, Maybe, offers thoughts on keeping true to yourself and advice for recent grads."Don't worry about it if you're beating yourself for not having done all you should have by now. You are sufficient even if you haven't yet achieved any "big" successes. In this expansion of the 2017 commencement speech she gave at her hometown Langley High, Lauren Graham, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood, reflects on growing up, pursuing your dreams, and living in the here and now. "The most important thing is that you keep finding joy in what you're doing, especially when the joy isn't finding you," the saying goes for whatever route or professional choice you choose. No matter where life leads us or what we still need to do, Graham encourages us to remain empathetic and inquisitive in her endearing and humorous voice. This is a reassuring road map to a happy existence that is grounded, inspirational, and filled with illustrations by Graham. I've experienced highs and lows. I experienced high points and low points as a senior. I've been the primary character who wishes she had a more significant role. In actuality, they don't feel all that dissimilar from one another.
