Behind me is a World War 2 Veteran’s Memorial.
The Korean War Veterans Memorial and the Vietnam War Veterans Memorial.
Have you ever felt lost in your life?
Like you have no purpose that you're headed towards.
My name is Daniel Hyun Kim honorably discharged for serving six years in the military of the
greatest country in the world and I want talk about my personal experience of how serving
in the military has helped me find my true calling.
Which is serving my brothers, other men finding their true purpose in life.
What does it mean to serve something bigger than yourself?
Well right now while you are watching this, you're wondering what am I doing with my life?
Where am I going?
Why am I here in this world?
And here's the thing, when I was in high school I didn't know either.
When I first joined the Air Force Academy, at first it was to have that status of a great
school, to have my parents be proud of me, to feel a certain way that I'm joining something.
But as years went by and I was going through one of the hardest times of my life, going
through boot camp, being trained every morning, going through one of the hardest academic
studies that I ever went through, I realized that serving something bigger than yourself
is finding a purpose that's greater than you and for me that was finding out what freedom
was.
I live in the United States of America.
We have freedom to do anything we truly want, to pursue the dream we want, to pursue the
American dream.
That to me, it serves something bigger than yourself.
It's serving the country, the environment that helps you fulfill the dreams that you
truly want.
Seeing the history of all the men who died and protected our country and knowing that
anytime I have to go protect my country whether in a foreign country.
May have to go to war anytime and it was also putting on a uniform that millions of other
men and women has worn before me to fight and protect the freedom of the United States
of America.
One of the most important aspects I learned in the military is mission first, people always.
Which means that mission must always get done no matter what the obstacles and circumstances
are and for me my mission is my purpose in life is to serve my brothers, help them become
the best version in their lives and nothing is going to stop me and for you, you must
find your mission, your purpose.
No matter how big or small, believe in it and get it done.
Millions have joined and served our military.
Hundreds and thousands of our veterans have given the ultimate sacrifice.
Their life, protecting the rights and freedom of their loved ones and you.
And I want you to really think about this.
Mothers have lost their sons, wives have lost their husbands.
These veterans gave up their life protecting in something they believe in.
What about you?
What is something that you're protecting as if your life depended on it?
What is something that you are willing to give the ultimate sacrifice?
