Here I sit on the crest of a new dawn. My mouth waters. My soul yearns for closure of a once brutal existance. A closure that is soon to come. I know that within me lies the strength to overcome adversity and crush objection. Mustering that strength is something I have never been profoundly good at. It is at this commencement that I beseach all that is good in the world to assist me in my endeavors. God knows that I cannot do this alone.
A wise person once told me, "If you don't know what you want, striving for it is not gonna help." That statement rings more true to me now than ever before. I know what I would be happy doing. I am weary of the well traveled path that now lays before me. Will I lack the commitment to finish the grueling four years of school to make my dreams come true?
I have been sent a most worthy companion. And even in this hour, when I miss her the most, I can feel her encouragement and strength. It is her that I wake for, day after day. It is her that I yearn to see when we are apart. And her alone, that I long to hold. Her loving gaze and tight grasp still make my heart race.
