What do presidents, pop stars, and you have in common? Oprah’s 2013 speech at Harvard University hits on something we all feel: the need to be seen and understood. After thousands of interviews, she realized that no matter who we are—presidents, performers, or everyday people — we all want the same thing: to know that what we said mattered. In our age of constant connectivity, it's easy to hide behind screens, sending our words into the void of social media, where speed, distance, and anonymity often strip away the depth of meaningful human connection. Yet, Oprah urges us to reclaim face-to-face conversations. To look people in the eye, especially those we disagree with, and have the courage to listen, really listen. She reminds us that the act of truly standing in someone else’s shoes, of recognizing our shared humanity, is essential for both our personal growth and the collective progress of our nation… and we can’t help but agree. #Humanity #Oprah #Harvard #Hope #Inspiration
