I have not invited you here today for a funeral of my failed commitments. 

Rather, we are holding a celebration of their life.

The commitments resting here taught me who I am. I am me. I am upbeat and offbeat. And words are where it’s at. It may have taken more years than desired, but I’ve finally found where I can use my words to lift others up and bring some smiles to the world. It’s in advertising.

So here I, Jared Brockbank, declare my enthusiastic, sigh-of-reliefing, full-steam-ahead commitment to advertising.

​

Let's write words and share smiles.
