forward march

{Lourdes College, Cagayan de Oro City - March 09}

"A graduation ceremony is an event wherein the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that 'individuality' is the key to success."
- Robert Orben


Seeing the hopeful faces of the new graduates makes me want to play devil's advocate and say to them: "This is as good as it gets." They reminded me of how careless life was at that age. I only cared about getting into college and getting good enough grades to get to the next sem. Life was uncomplicated. I wish I could turn back the clock and experience for one brief moment what life was like without all the responsibilities and drama. I wish I was a graduate again.
