You're now
at the summit after years
of clawing your way
to the top
of a towering mountain.
With blood and dirt
under your fingernails,
calluses on your hands,
you're on top of the world!
Congratulations, graduate!
You did it!
Now pat yourselves on the back!
This hard-earned success
didn't come easy.
Boy, does it taste oh so sweet!
Nothing feels better!
There's nothing quite like
reaping the rewards
of accomplishment;
a warm soup
to the soul in winter!
Stay motivated.
Keep chasing your dreams.
The flame of inspiration
gradually grows
into an inferno.
Keep feeding that inferno!
Your journey doesn't stop
at the peak of one mountain.
You're still...
t r a v e l i n g
on the road of destiny.
Take time
to savor the moments;
take in the mountain breeze.
You've come this far,
yet you have
many more miles to go!
The journey continues
after graduation.
There are still...
higher peaks to climb,
more to accomplish,
so keep surging ahead,
dear graduate,
keep flying high
with your mighty wings
to reach
even further destinations.
Don't rest on your laurels!
You mustn't stop
educating
and pushing yourself.
Continue
conquering summits;
climb every mountain!
