The pandemonium has officially started. People are now losing their minds because the Oprah Winfrey Show is over after 25 amazing years. 13,000 friends and fans joined Oprah in the United Center Monday and Tuesday night for her Surprise Spectacular. There were special appearances and dedications from everyone from Dakota Fanning, Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin to Madonna, Maya Angelou and the Morehouse 400. Then on the final show, Wednesday, Oprah took the time to tell all of her fans and guests what they meant to her over the years.
After all the tears have dried, what will happen next? Atlanta has filled the Oprah slot by moving up the news to 4:00, but will that be enough? Will that fill the void left in the hearts of millions? Or will it be you? Oprah Winfrey paved the way for people all over the world to follow their dreams, to never be afraid to reach for the impossible. So what is stopping you? Oprah once said that you have to "understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibility." The time is now for you to pave your own path.
