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! Date written:06/06/2021
