Graduation

Graduation Your Family has raised you Your Creativity has led you. Your Determination has held you Your Work has lifted you Your Friends have been with you Your school will remember you You have made memories and friendships to always hold You have made your life and it has made you You have become more and you will become more again. You have been part of the past and you are now a part of the future You have been one of many but you are still unique You have depended on others and others will come to depend on you Never forget you can still seek advice or extend a helping hand Never forget that you can make things better but cannot change everything Never forget that paths will change and may again cross Never forget to use your strengths and never give up Never forget mistakes happen and never forget to forgive Never lose your courage or fail to get back up again Never forget to continue to strive, hope, pray, and be happy Remember there are still lessons to be learned and mountains to be climbed Remember there are still fears to overcome and dreams to be dreamed. Remember we Salute your future endeavors and… We Salute You. Remember you are uniquely you Remember: You are our sons and daughters… And Remember: You are loved true.
