Whether you're a high school student ready for that next step, a college grad anxiously sailing into whatever life has to offer, or a military academy officer on your way overseas, nothing says seasonal and lifetime change like graduation. This one goes out to those who are the first in their families to make it and the ones who have been inspired by their elders to pursue greatness. For those who have landed their dream job and those who have no idea where life is going to take them. To the parents and guardians who sacrificed hard and long to get them there and for those who hustled and did it all on their own. Most importantly, this one is for all the dream chasers who, whether they realize it or not, dare to chase something by accepting that diploma: You inspire us, you challenge us, and you fight long hard battles, typically within yourself, with determination and hope, yet most of the time your work goes unnoticed. Except for today.
And as the seniors take the walk to receive their certificates of victory, the juniors swallow hard knowing that they're up next. May the golden beams of Summer wash over you all as you take your first steps towards the future you fought so hard for.
