Another Milestone: Graduation

Today is Graduation Day! 

After countless papers, hundreds of thousands of words, countless books, two full-fledged (and one sorry attempt) all-nighters, and more finals than I care to remember, I am graduating with my degree in English Literature. 

I like to think that I am significantly wiser and more mature than when I first began this journey 4 and a half years ago.  So much has changed about me, about my life since then.  And in some bizarre way, the stories I have read and the papers I have written serve as a witness to my journey to who I am now.  I, of course, will continue to grow and mature, but it is an interesting phenomenon to see your life change through your own written words.

This is just another door opening up to Opportunity.

I say to my child, I will explain to you as much of life as I can, but you must remember that there is a part of life for which you are the explanation.  ~Robert Brault
