Oprah on Misty Copeland's Final Performance

Oprah reflects on the experience of witnessing Misty Copeland's final dance performance, calling it "a wondrous, once-in-a-lifetime experience".

What an honor to have seen it, to have felt it, and to carry the imprint of that moment forward.

She had agreed to be co-chair for the American Ballet Theatre fall gala, which gave her the chance to see Misty Copeland dance for the first and last time.

According to Oprah, watching Misty Copeland dance was like seeing "grace itself had taken human form" as every movement seemed to transcend technique.

God deposits greatness in us. What He placed within us was never meant to stay confined to us.

This insight was shared by Bishop Walker, a pastor and friend of Oprah's.

Oprah sets an intention every week, exclusively for Oprah Daily Insiders, with reflections on various topics.
